Seem in fine condition, however not brand-new, clearly vintage.
Asnes Tur-Langrenn Norwegian ski manufacturing facilities used to deliver wood skis and bamboo poles all over the world. Manufacturing of wood skis was halted in the 1980s, as fiberglass and other synthetics became more popular and more economical to make. Now it's difficult to discover a pair of wood cross-country skis in excellent condition.
snes Ski Factory began the first commercial manufacturing of snes skis back in 1922 when the 4 snes brothers started the ski production on a small scale. Arne snes, the eldest in a Christian household of 9, got a job at LC Hagens ski manufacturing facility in Oslo in 1910. After a brief time, he was signed up with by three siblings and in 1922 they started up the snes Ski Factory.
Ever since, the development had gone from production of strong wooden skis to laminated wood core, glass fibre and cap skis, with or without steel edges, on a industrial and high-tech

basis.
snes produced various other brand names of wooden skis for U.S. business, including Janoy, Telemark, and Trysil Knut. Customers in Norway and abroad understood little about snes' profusion of designs, only that they were Norwegian.
snes provided his last wooden skis to the military in 1987 and later on declared bankruptcy in 1998
