Hahaha, I have seen that... I mean there's a bit of a similarity in shape but... I wouldn't call it a Bowie. But I guess people name foreign things based on what they already know.

Just a question... how common are double sets of these style of fighting knives? I seen some here and there but they're almost always single. Often you can see double daggers or double baat jam do (butterfly swords with the guards), but this is the only "pirate fighting knife" or "Chinese bowie" I've seen in a double set.
