Very fine, retains 85% of the original blue finish and 80% plus of the vibrant original case colors with the balance having thinned to a smooth brown or grey patina and a crisp etched panel. The grips are fine with numerous minor dings and scratches scattered throughout. Mechanically excellent. The case is fine with some scattered minor handling/storage marks.
