                There are some similarities to mine, but I don't care for yours Meriksson and it looks like a reproduction using mine as the model. Not saying mine is 100%, but never had a reason to doubt.

                1. Mine has the common plating on the front and frosting on the reverse and yours is lacking that.

                2. Look at the corners where the arms meet, they are round on yours and very sharp on mine.

                3. The overall look is soft on yours and looks like small pits on the back.

                  Have in mind the tools used to produce my one are S&L, core, frames, catch. But i agree there is some finish that is missing, and it´s also in some ways strange made. Well i think we will never know wen it was made, during war or after.

                    Here is an S&L KVK with a similar hinge and pin.

                      and a close up of the hinge.

                        Thanks Adrian, that is consistant with mine

                        Mericksson - Again thanks for showing the badge.

                        There are other differences with the badge you are showing. The frame width is inconsistant on yours. Look at the 6 o'clock arm and there appears to be a die flaw on the 9'o'clock arm. Even the construction of the hinge and pin looks different. The color also just looks off to me. Could have been made by S&L, but I don't think mine and yours were made in the same decade.

                        I am not an EK expert, these are just things I notice comparing mine to yours and mine to other known original S&L's.
