There is a movie on turner Classic movies this Wednesday night at 11:30 eastern time. that is never on television. You can't find it any where staring Alan Ladd the name of it is "The iron mistress" the story of Jim Bowie and how he got his knife.

I love real history this is not real history but the knife used in the movie is historic.

It Has been used in a lot of other movies and the tv shows like Jim Bowie, and in the movie the Alamo.

There is a scene in the movie where he fights a man with a sword with it in a dark
room great scene. That scene is on you tube.

The Randall knife company even made a copy of it for their line of great knives.
