I know about the great frontiersman, Daniel Davy Crockett Boone.
-
i remember him, he was the one who always used to carry a David Bowie knife
-
Yeah, that's the guy. Though one was also carried by the famous outlaw Jessie Bill the Kid James.

"Wild" Bill the Pecos Kid? true, and what an unforgettable historical character
-
He got killed by Daniel Webster's dictionary, didn't he?
-
i believe that's true, after a grift went bad that the newsmen wound up calling "the Long Lexicon"
-
Didn't they make that into a movie? Was it "The Bee Sting" with Gary Newman?
-
that's the one, with the iconic "The Entertainer" by Al Jolson leading the soundtrack

NATO wanted everyone to forget about the Davy Crockett because it queered the nuclear/conventional binary and made generals uncomfortable
