sometimes eBay uses specifics above that may not be right. please use pictures and description down here. knife locks up tight with no play. it has not been used much, if it at all. i dont know if its bead blast on the blade or if its a coating. i am leaning toward a coating. it has some fibers hanging in the drill holes. comes with box and paper which show wear. please view the pictures. the background grid is in inches. USA SHIPPING ONLY. USPS DOMESTIC. I DO NOT SHIP TO APO, DPO, OR FPO ADDRESSES. I DO SHIP TO REGULAR PO BOXES AND TO US PROTECTORATES WHERE USPS DELIVERS DOMESTIC MAIL. thank you and see my other auctions
