This item is in Mint Condition.  This is a very attractive collector piece. This model was only made in 1988 and the bolsters are gold plated. Typically, you find one in a box with a damaged interior or with no box at all. This is one of a few I have seen without damage which makes it highly desirable to anyone with a hole to fill in their collection.  The bolsters and the blade are perfect on it. The box has some minimal edgewear that can’t be helped with cardboard over 30 years old.
