Hi Deejay
Well i belive the one you showing is a war time pice. The front match my unmarkt war timer. But mine has a diff pin. The one shown above has a new tooling for the front and also it miss the
normal war time silvering to the front. If the one shown here by me is an post war then maybe the orginal tooling got bad or hurt,
and they did have get a new set. I know Souval did make Ek´s long after the war. I was thinking my maybe could be an early pice!, as some makers did use those pins early on the war.

I am now more convinced than earlier (did you notice the sloppy cutting om the silver edge on the lower right of swasika? I have compared it to my other two Souvals, this one doe not live up to the normal quality standards, but as so still an interesting item. Thanks for your (quick) replies.

Souval also?
Hi Merikson,
do you mean it is also a Souval? That would surprise me. The cross does seem to be the same besides the pin and catch. Here is my polished one for comparison.
It would be a great idea to get all different EK makers Post's on this forum with images and details to every type don't you agree?As I am collecting as many EK1's with all makers as I can find I would really welcome a clean data-base for reference.
