A bowie knife is okay if that's how you roll. My breakfast knife of choice is a Buck 110 Folding Hunter. (The smaller Buck 112 Folding Hunter is acceptable for women as it fits more readily in a purse.)
True story: Last summer I was helping my cousin move his family from Pittsburgh to Florida. We stopped along the way at a Denny's restaurant. At Denny's they had a "Build your slam" breakfast, you get to pick four items from the breakfast menu.
I ordered my eggs over easy with bacon, bacon, and bacon. (It was pretty good.)
