These uniquely American blades have gained almost legend-like status for their role on the American frontier. Made famous by James "Jim" Bowie and his famous Sandbar Fight, Bowie knives became immensely popular and saw a wide variety of styles, from the down & dirty to the highly ornate.
"The knife that cuts twice" has cemented its place in American history, and collectors continue to clamor for the Bowie knife - a blade which set a new standard of design and provides a fine canvas for generation after generation of bladesmiths to hone their art.
