The Bowie knife is the great American fighting blade of the nineteenth century: a heavy sheath knife, typically with a clipped point and a blade of eight inches or more, named for James Bowie and made famous by the 1827 Sandbar Fight, where a wounded Bowie killed his attacker with his big butcher-style knife. Within a decade Sheffield's cutlers were shipping Bowies to America by the crate, and the knife had become sidearm, tool, and legend across the frontier.
