Very good. The barrels have a smooth pleasant rebrowned patina and retain about 95% of the dark Damascus pattern. There is some scattered dark minor pitting. The rest of the metal surfaces have a mixed brown and gray patina. The markings and engraving are clear. The wood is fine with some minor scratches and dings. Forearm has a couple minor chips. The checkering is very good. The case is very good with some minor scratches and scuff marks. The stitching is tight.
