In Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, in addition to its presence in Zombies, the Bowie Knife was made available as a standalone weapon in Blackout mode after an update.

The Bowie Knife does not feature in Ascension and Call of the Dead due to its replacement for a new melee weapon, the Sickle. However, sometimes the player may not get it before it loses its one-hit-kill status, making it somewhat of a waste of 3000 points. It is better than the starting knife as the player's melee will become more powerful. In Zetsubou No Shima, the Bowie Knife reduces the time needed to cut through webs woven by the Spiders. In World at War, the Bowie Knife will not be lost on death, remaining with the player after death. If equipped with a Pack-a-Punched Ballistic Knife (The Krauss Refribrillator), it will one hit kill normal zombies to round 13, Crawler Zombies to round 17 and Hellhounds and Jumping Jack until the fourth Hellhound or Jumping Jack round. It is a one-hit-kill to Hellhounds and Jumping Jacks all the way up until the third Hellhound or Jumping Jack round. It increases knife damage from 150 to 1150 (1000 in Call of Duty: Black Ops and Call of Duty Online), making it a one-hit-kill for zombies from round 1 to round 11 (round 9 for Call of Duty: Black Ops, Black Ops II, and Black Ops III), and through round 12 for Crawler Zombies. Its first appearance was in the Map Pack 3 trailer for Call of Duty: World at War. The Bowie Knife is a special knife which can be bought for 3000 points off the wall in Der Riese, Kino der Toten, "Five", Shangri-La, Moon, Tranzit, Nuketown Zombies, Die Rise, Buried, Shadows of Evil, The Giant, Der Eisendrache, Zetsubou No Shima, Gorod Krovi, Revelations (map), Classified, IX, Voyage of Despair, Dead of the Night, Ancient Evil and Alpha Omega. It also appears in Cyborg Evacuation from Call of Duty Online. It is larger and wider than the standard knife in Call of Duty: World at War (or any other Call of Duty game so far).
