Graduations are very faded, to the point where restoration would be required before any practical use. Otherwise, remains a fully functional tool. Hinge is strong and operates smoothly...not too loose, not too tight and folds together flush with good hold/pressure by wedging under bottom caliper jaw (very good design detail). Bottom caliper jaw slides freely. No bowing or warping to the wood. Insanely rich, beautifully deep & dark patina to all materials throughout.
