The Adventures of Jim Bowie is an American Western television series that aired on ABC from 1956 to 1958. Set in the 1830s-era Louisiana Territory, the series is based on the book Tempered Blade by Monte Barrett. Scott Forbes stars as the real-life adventurer Jim Bowie. Initially, the series portrayed Jim Bowie as an outdoorsman, riding his horse through the wilderness near his home in Opelousas, where he would often encounter someone in need of help. He was equipped with the Bowie Knife, his ever-present weapon, which he designed in the first episode, The Birth of the Blade.
