I purchased this about 10 years ago and used it a few times. It has been stored at home since then. It still works. I will include the wooden case and cloth bag shown in the photos. There is no warranty or instruction manual. I was told it could be used by either men or women. Please see the photos for the size. As this item has been stored at home for a long time, there may be signs of aging, stains, etc. As it is a precision instrument, I cannot guarantee that it functions the same as a new one. Please purchase only if you are satisfied with it as a used item. I will ship it in simple packaging using materials I have at home. I will wrap it in bubble wrap. Please note that I may not be able to ship on weekends. Instant purchase without comments is welcome.
