Safeties work perfectly. No Blade Peak.. Action is superb and positive. Both blades actually lock without any "bounce back". (Both Blades have slight up and down blade play in the open position). Blades appear to be full with very slight/minor staining on main blade. Onyx Celluloid Handles show slight shrinkage but no rivet cracks. Brass Liners. Carbon Steel Blades are razor sharp. Overall very good condition.
