This knife is in overall vgc, however it looks like someone tried to sharpen it or clean it up w/ a file and didn't do a very good job of it. It has a brown wooden hilt with a 6 1/2" blade and totals 11 1/2". A priority mail padded envelope could be an option as well and I'm more than happy to combine combine shipping on multiple purchases. Please check out my other items for sale at your convenience.
