Bowie knife - a type of American straight-bladed hunting knife popularised in the early 19th century by the famous pioneer, Jim Bowie. The first examples were created by the armourer James Black, and although the name "Bowie knife" came to refer to all large, heavy knives with a wide blade, a proper "Bowie" should have a short handle with a small hilt and a blade with a distinctive crescent-shaped cut-out on the back. The Bowie knife owes its name to a duel that took place in 1827 on a sandbank on the Mississippi at Natchez. After the duel, in which Jim Bowie did not participate, a fight ensued; Bowie was shot twice and stabbed with a spade blade, but his opponent impaled himself on his knife. Replicas of this knife are still popular with collectors; they are made by numerous knife companies in the US and by hundreds of amateurs. source: en.wikipedia.org NOTE: Leather scabbards draw moisture out of the air and tend to rust knives if not stored properly. When you are finished using your knife, remove it from the leather scabbard and apply gun oil, 'Seal 1' or a similar protectant and store. Damascus, 1095HC and D2 can rust and develop stains if not lubricated. The knife can be stored without lubrication as long as it is CLEANED / washed and DRY !
