For reference the knives are 8 1/2 long. I was told that it was a wedding gift in the 50s and never used. Very substantial total weight about 9 lbs. Tarnished, box dirty from long storage, top caved in. It is vintage, and any imperfections that have occurred only add to the charm and uniqueness.
If you are expecting it to be new in the box, never touched by life or human hands, it is not for you.
