One afternoon Rezin was hunting and killed a rabbit.
He was going to skin his rabbit when he hit a bone, his hand slid down and badly cut his fingers.
Inspired to prevent reoccurrence he subsequently designed what became known as the Bowie knife.
This knife had a blade nine and a quarter inches long and one and one-half inches wide.
The following year, on September 19, 1827, James Bowie and Major Norris Wright attended a duel on a sandbar outside of Natchez, Mississippi, supporting opposing sides.
The duel was resolved with a handshake, but other members of the groups, who had various reasons for disliking each other, began fighting.
James Bowie suffered several serious injuries, and was repeatedly shot and stabbed, but managed to pull his knife and use it to disembowel Wright, who died instantly.
Newspapers picked up the story, which became known as the Sandbar Fight, and Bowie's fighting prowess and his knife were described in detail.
There is disagreement among scholars as to whether the knife used in this fight was the same kind of knife now known as a Bowie knife.
Many different accounts exist of who designed and built the first Bowie knife.
Some claim that James Bowie designed it and others attribute the design to noted knifemakers of the time.
However, in a letter to "The Planter's Advocate", Bowie claimed to have invented the knife, and many Bowie family members and "most authorities on the Bowie knife tend to believe it was invented by" Bowie.
His grandchildren, however, claimed that Bowie merely supervised his blacksmith who created the knife.
After the Sandbar Fight, and subsequent battles in which James Bowie successfully used his knife, it became very popular.
Many craftsman and manufacturers made their own versions of the knife, and many major cities of the Southwest had "Bowie knife schools", which taught "the art of cut, thrust, and parry."
His fame, and that of his knife, spread to Britain, and by the early 1830s many British knife manufacturers were producing Bowie knives, shipping many of them to the United States for sale.
The design of the knife continued to evolve, and it is generally agreed to have a blade 8.25 inches long and 1.25 inches wide, with a curved point.
It had a "sharp false edge cut from both sides" and a cross-guard to protect the user's hands. 
Marcel Vandal (1882–1965) was a French film producer.
During the 1910s he worked closely with the German producer Erich Pommer for the French company Elcair.
Vandal served in the French Army during the First World War.
He directed four silent films between 1926 and 1928.
Vandal and Pommer later collaborated following the latter's exile from Nazi Germany, firstly in Paris on "Liliom" (1934) and later in London for "Vessel of Wrath" (1938). 
Cutting principles.
Knife cut principle.
The book cutting machine works with three knives and use the knife cut principle.
The knife cut principle operates with only one knife per edge which cuts against a rubber surface.
This surface supported the cut force.
The three-knife-trim is performed in one step.
The block is aligned and fixed by the pressure bar.
The three knives cut all edges but except the spine, new machines need only one step. 
Vandal's first vinyl release was in 2000 through big beat label Plastic Raygun, Vandal went on to release three more singles and five remixes via Plastic Raygun before moving to Meat Katie's LOT49 record label in 2005.
Vandal released the album 'Tonight We Riot' through LOT49 in 2010.
Although Vandal had been releasing singles for a decade 'Tonight We Riot' was his debut long player, featuring collaborations with Ryan Shuck from the American band Julien-K amongst others.
