In varied state, however all the pairs display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with their age and use, and to varying degrees. Heavier tarnishing to some and they would all benefit from a clean and polish. General dints and bumps, heavier to some. Also some deeper scratches and marks are visible. Holes and splits in the metal on a couple of the handles. Rubbing and partial distortion to some of the hallmarks but they are mainly legible. Rust is visible to the metal sections.
