New World
Knife: This knife is made from a 3 ¼ x 2’’ tiger skin
obsidian blade that has been hafted to a 5'' choke cherry handle with
simulated pine pitch and artificial sinew. Red, white and blue trade
yarn give this knife its' medicine. The total length is 7 1/2’’.
When the Western Plains Indians began to realize the new and wondrous
powers of the newcomers (Europeans), they attributed their unusual
abilities to great medicines. They quickly began to copy their
symbols, such as the cross and colors so that they too could capture
some of this powerful medicine. This knife is a tribute to those great
medicines.
