This is a used kni-Co brand wall tent stove package. It is the Alaskan model, see photos for size. Comes with 4 chimney sections, a 5″ damper and sleeve, and a 5″ spark arrestor. I got this new in 2014, and have used it many hunting seasons. This works good in the cabelas alaknak style wall tents or similar. The condition is “working” there is a dent on the corner, see photos, and lots of surface rust which is normal. The stove comes with a damper sleeve, and chimney spark arrester and 4 pipe sections. All of it is good enough to get you by. But I would reccomend replacing the damper sleeve and spark arrestor, because both of them are worn out and basically ready to be replaced. The damper sleeve has been tack welded together a few times, and is barely workable. I have included photos of the damper sleeve and spark arrestor I would replace on this setup to keep it going many more seasons. They are available on kni-Co manufacturing website, read below part #’s for both. The stove itself is still solid, feel free to ask any questions you may have. Info from Kni-Co about stove below.
