Oh, the Bowie Knife, NOT David Bowie. I hope that sculpture is very firmly fixed to the ground, because I can see lots of kids and idle adults making a sport of trying to pull that knife handle down. Good idea though, and it invites us to learn about local history.

that is pretty neat.
Since I am related distantly to Jim Bowie, it means something to me.

Fine knife. I have a Ka-Bar, which incorporates some Bowie knife features, though on a smaller scale: blade length, 7”.

If it’s a true Bowie, it has to have a clip-edge, which I thought were illegal.

A nice place to visit, but a little to close to Yankee lands for me. LoL!

True story: was in Malibu Ca at a party at one of those condo homes literally on stilts,2 story, and you could go on the balcony and see water below ya
When I could not find my friend, I ax’d the host if he had seen him
He grinned an said,he went back east to pee
