Items are in varied state, however they all display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use.  Three of the thimbles are quite misshapen around the rims, and some holes are starting to appear in one of them.  Considerable surface wear and marks to the mother of pearl on the knife, including some black ink writing.
