It was first made by James Black, although its common use refers to any large sheath knife with a clip point.

The Jim Bowie knife first became famous due to Bowie’s use of a large knife at a duel known as the Sandbar Fight. The knife pattern is still popular with collectors, in addition to various knife manufacturing companies there are hundreds of custom knife makers producing Bowies and variations.

Below are a few Bowie knives Scott Davidson has made in the past.
