The Origin of Damascus Bowie Knife

This knife’s design is credited to Rezin Bowie, who gave the style his name. As they say, “Necessity is the mother of Invention,” and this instance is no exception. Historical references narrate a day when Bowie went hunting and killed a rabbit. But as he attempted to skin the animal, he struck a bone, lost his grip, and suffered severe cuts from the blade. In an attempt to make sure this didn't happen again, he experimented and created a style that was far more appropriate for hunting.

Rezin's brother, James, popularized the knife by participating in the historic Sandbar fight in September 1827. Following the newspapers' accounts of the blade and James's use of it to win several more fights, bowie knives quickly became well-known and were created by a number of manufacturers. Later, when Damascus became increasingly popular in the modern world, bowie knives made from Damascus became highly prized as hunting and collectible tools.

If you're looking for a blade that not only represents accuracy and history but also your refined taste and admiration for the best craftsmanship, go with Unholy Blades. We have the perfect Damascus bowie knife for sale—check it out on our website now.
