The knife has no blade play but we did notice a few rubs on the drop point blade. It may have been carried we are not the original owners. It is clean between the brass liners with no cracks or splitting in the scales. It has the typical light scratches on the polished bolsters. The blades feel sharp and they do have snap. It is 4 1/8 inches long when closed. Please study photos as they are part of the item condition. We do not set the shipping rates but do try to ship in the smallest possible box that allows plenty of room for packing materials.
