Knife type named for an Alamo fighter (5)

I believe the answer is:

bowie

(Other definitions for bowie that I've seen before include "Rock-based chameleon" , "David --, singer" , "David --, rock singer/songwriter" , "Art rocker David" , "American frontiersman, killed at the Alamo, 1836" .)

I've seen this clue in the Universal.
