ALL OF THE TOOLS ARE CRISP AND CLEAN, THEY ARE NOT WORN AT ALL, THE KNIVES HAVE NOT BEEN SHARPENED AND STILL HAVE THE ORIGINAL FACTORY EDGE, SEE PHOTOS, THE TWEEZERS ARE MISSING BUT I THINK I CSAN TAKE A PAIR OUT OF ANOTHER SWISS ARMY KNIFE TO COMPLETE THIS ONE, ONE SIDE HAS AN ENGRAVING WITH THE PREVIOUS OWNERS INITIALS "P.T.M." SOME SCRATCHES AND SOME TINY CHIPS HAVE BEEN WORN OUT OF BODY BUT IS STILL IN FAIR SHAPE, EACH FUNCTION OPENS AND LOCKS TIGHT , SCISSORS ARE CLEAN AND SO IS THE COMPASS.
I would ask for my money back.This is one of the reasons why I rarely buy used knives on ebay,improper descriptions.When there are obscure or unclear photos,I pass.True high resolution photos would have revealed any and all defects in this knife.If I had the opportunity to view this tool in person before purchasing it,I would have offered the seller $30.00.This is my humble opinion.
Make sure to leave the proper feedback as well. I have also done very well on the bay of fleas as there are great deals to be had. Gene Stoner said it best "don't bid if you have any doubt at all and never tell your self you have to have it because another good deal well be along soon so have the willpower to pass." If there aren't great pictures I pass because lets face it most current phones have great picture taking capabilities. I'd still email seller and let him know you are unhappy and you plan to leave the appropriate feedback.
Keep it, ask for reduced price due "way off" description,clen it up, and you got one of the greatest scores ...

I like to clean them up and play with different blade grinds, as well as practice the art of scale changing and upgrading. I might start trying my hand at modding someday.
