Weahkee became well knows for a style of fetish carving that closely resembles historic Zuni forms. He also carved highly distinctive human figures. Weahkee's daughters Edna Leki and Mary Tsikewa carried on the carving tradition, as did Edna's daughters Dinah Gasper and Lena Boone.
Weahkee also worked as a farmer and a guide; and, in the 1950's, he served as Zuni's governor.
