This is a factory second from the fantastic US ARMY-95 Quartermaster production knife by Ontario. This is a factory second due to the blade being unmarked. The stacked leather handles are a little loose and can turn a little, some may have a blemish on the blade. These have been stored in the sheath for a long time and may have tarnished brass. Otherwise this is a great quality knife and will work well for any job. Nice balance and the satin finished 440A blade is very nice!
