    Texas now has an official knife.

    "[T]he Bowie knife typically features a steel blade that is at least an inch and a half wide and eight inches long and between 3/16 and 1/4 inch thick, with a clip point that gives the weapon its distinctive shape; the knife ’s handle often incorporates an S-shaped guard, with the upper part angled forward so as to catch an opponent ’s blade during a fight; ..."

    Since the "big knife" the first is based on...is on display in the Alamo, and was owned by Jim Bowie's older brother Rezin, and is thus by definition an actual "Bowie Knife" I find that comment very amusing :D
