Aside from the scale, accepting a gift from your Father-In-Law is a good idea just on general principles. Even if the scale needs refurbishing (which RCBS/Ohaus will do) it will provide cement for your relationship.
Besides, if the knife edge or jewel bearings are in good condition, the scale should be as good as gold. Not much goes wrong with gravity.
My advice: Accept the scale, use it (refurbish if necessary) return the favor some time in the future and enjoy.
