4 Stars
Does NOT include "sheath"
The blades themselves are gorgeous. Absolutely stunning and so painlessly simple and comfy to use.However. There is NO protective sheath as advertised. There's what is essentially a plastic ring equivalent of the rubber bands they put on lobster claws. Which was a disappointment seeing as I was looking forward to the leather sheath.
