Hilt is slightly loose but could be tightened; backside langet is slightly bent and hole has been drilled through this location, through the backside of scabbard, and partially into blade as if something was to be inserted to secure the blade in the scabbard (see images); some red leather is missing from the scabbard but metal body underneath is intact; otherwise condition is about fair overall.
