Hi Guys

Is this one a known fake? Just wanted to confirm if it was a copy rather than a secondary wear piece, it does have some age to it.

Many thanks for your opinions

Patrick

Hi Patrick,

It's not a known fake but in my opinion it's a fake nonetheless, based on a good KO EK1 from 1914.

Best regards,
