And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Whaling knife from the Faroe Islands, wooden handle and sheath inlaid with hook, spear, whale and boat, unknown date, possibly late 19th to early 20th century
Looks like mahogany with brass inlay.
