The knife is in functional condition but we are not the original  owners and have no idea if it has ever been sent to Cutco for sharpening. The blade has several scratches that appear to be from a poor sharpening method but it feels sharp at this time. The spine has several dings on top. The blade etching has " NO. <> CUTCO <> 22 " with " Made in U.S.A. " under CUTCO. The knife is 13 3/16 inches long overall. Please study photos as they are part of the item description.
