Nessmuck was a real person, born in Massachusetts, and even served in a Pennsylvania Regiment during the Civil War. Lots of history on the man, and that is who the knife design refers to.

You beat me to it George when you mentioned George Washington Sears AKA Nessmuck. He lived in Wellsboro Pennsylvania for part of his life.
