Purchased from the official online shop of Tsuchiya Kaban Manufacturing in March 2022. I believe I used it about 10 times over the course of 3 years. I handled it with care, but there is some slight color unevenness in places, so please refer to the photos to make your judgment. There is no outer box. It hasn't developed a well-worn sheen yet, and the leather is relatively matte. *It is usually stored in an area that cats cannot access. Thank you.
