Condition report:
The knife is in excellent overall condition. The brushed steel blade retains a clean finish with only extremely light surface scuffing from insertion into the sheath. The polished aluminum handle and finger guard show minor handling marks but maintain a high luster. The elk antler inserts are well-fitted to the frame and free of cracks or significant shrinkage. The leather sheath remains supple with minor surface impressions and all stitching and hardware are intact and functional.
