OVERALL CONDITION |
excellent, my silversmith has lightly polished and gently sharpened the steel blades so that these extraordinarily scarce knives are now safe for food use. Not suitable for modern high temperature dishwashers. |
FAULTS |
General surface markings commensurate with age and some use and one little bump mid-way down the handle of the carver. |
