This Miniature Cherokee Bowie Knife is one of our "Collector Series Miniatures" and is based on the famous Bowie knife in the 1830 painting of "Tah-Chee", the Cherokee chief. This was a popular, early style Bowie produced in Sheffield, England by the Gravely & Weeks firm. Our miniature version is a faithful reproduction featuring rosewood grip plates and German silver fittings, and it comes with a leather sheath patterned after the original. Overall length is 5-1/8".
COLLECTOR'S MINIATURE KNIVES & BOWIES
Our Collector's Miniature Series is very popular, and we now offer 6 different styles based on a few of our most popular full-size knives! You'll love the quality and style, and with perfectly fitted bone and wood grips, they're a collector's dream. Ranging from 4-1/2" to 5-1/2" in overall length, each is complete with its own genuine leather sheath, and they make fine little neck knives as well!
The first thing you notice when viewing this likeness of Tahchee is not the knife but his eyes. In 1833 A P Chouteau wrote “Dutch (Tahchee) is looked upon as the most sagacious and daring war Captain in the Cherokee Nation west of the Mississippi…Dutch may be known, by a slight description among a thousand warriors, by his remarkable black, keen, restless eyes.”
