It is clear that the knife "lived" in the sheath for awhile, but it is in wonderful shape for its age. The sheath does show a few marks and light stains from its storage over the years, but it is in super [if not pristine] condition. The owner's name -- "Fred" -- is engraved in the blade and gives the knife a sense of history.
