Rating Definition:

Very fine as custom embellished with 90% dark blue finish remaining, showing some thinning and small areas of smooth gray patina on the barrel. There is a repaired crack on the top of the stock at the upper tang, and overall there are a few minor dings and scratches. The checkering is crisp. The engraving is clear and crisp. The action is fine.
