Bowie knives are some of the most famed blades in the world. These knives have stood the test of time and still stand as some of the most advanced, functional and even beautiful knives ever created. What makes a Bowie knife, though? You will find that a knife must possess some particular characteristics to lay claim to this heritage. Obviously, the knife originated with Jim Bowie, and was even used in the Battle of the Alamo. However, the use of these knives spread far beyond the original wielder and you'll find them in many places today. Regarding blade length, of course, knives can have almost any blade length possible, from miniature penknives to survival knives and those that should probably be classified as short swords. However, Bowie knives have to have a blade of at least six inches in length in order to be considered actual "Bowie" knives. That said, you'll find derivatives with blades far in excess of six inches. The blade tip is yet another defining feature of Bowie knives. While the majority of knives, whether modern or antique in origin, have a tip in line with the spine or back of the blade, the Bowie knife does not. In fact, the point is considerably lower than the spine, for several reasons.
First, this provides better control of the knife tip during use. Second, it offers better penetration, because the tip is considerably smaller than it would be if it had a traditional design. Of course, you will also find that some of these clipped tips actually have the curved (or clipped) portion of the blade sharpened, which results in better penetration (called a Sheffield Bowie). One of the most notable features of these knives is the clipped point. While most knives feature a point that is directly in line with the spine of the blade, Bowie knives have a point that is lower than the spine. This offers several benefits. First, it provides the knife with better penetrative abilities. In a knife fight, for instance, the Bowie is much better at penetrating an opponent's flesh than traditional knife models are, thanks to the unique design of the blade's tip. Today, Bowie knives are found throughout the world, but you'll find the widest selection and the most derivatives of these knives in the US. However, carrying such a knife in public might not be a good idea, as many states still have a ban on them.
