One question for real, real, real die hard IJ Fans.
Did anybody ever heard about Indy wearing a bowie in the movies?
I don't mean the knife we all know but a small bowie inside its sheath.
I need some help 'cause I've never heard about that anywhere!

Where did you hear about a bowie knife in connection with IJ?

I saw it on Temple of Doom last night. I was trying to get a closer look for another prop in slow motion and I found this.
Click on it for an enhancement.
I really would like to heard about this. As for how it looks, It's something Indy would wear for sure. But I had to look at it twice when I found it since it was quite weird to see this between his belongings. Something accidental like his gloves at Raiders, but never discussed before?

I read Bowie a Bowtie....
Also been reading tornado as tomato quite often. Time to get the bifocals out!
LOL
Nice observation, never noticed Short round had a knife, it's probably cut out of the UK version of ToD!

There's a quick scene in the spike chamber where Indy tries to use the knife to pry out the stone that started the trap mechanism. When it doesn't work, we see Indy hand the knife back to Shorty and he puts it back into the belt sheath. Subtle, but there ya go

Yes, indeed.
I found it this very morning and I just explained it in my Facebook.
Thanks.
