Second Amendment Pocket Knife

In 1787, as our Founding Fathers debated the ratification of the Constitution - the very document upon which our entire system of government would be based - they fretted over a government with toomuch authority. It became apparent that amendments would need to be added to ensure an individual's rights and freedoms. The first 10 amendments became known as the Bill of Rights. The Second Amendment states that "...a well regulated militia is necessary to protect the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed upon.” Today, the right for private citizens to own guns is one of our most celebrated tenets of freedom.

Available exclusively from American Mint, this special anniversary tribute is a limited-edition pocket knife celebrating the Second Amendment. Exquisitely crafted in 420 stainless steel, the entire knife has a rugged camouflage finish with the distressed look of a military-grade knife.
