There are no noticeable scratches, but the back of the handle of the carving knife has a name sticker, so it feels a little sticky to the touch. Also, the blades of the carving knife show some signs of use. The case has faded slightly with use. Since the handle of the carving knife is made of rubber, fine dust may be attached. Please understand. I think the condition is good, but please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to such things. I will do my best to provide courteous service. #CarvingKnife #ArtClass #ElementarySchoolStudent #DIY #Carpenter #Processing
