        Wouldn´t it be very nice to see a photo of all your KCs together?
        Like the one Pieter Verbruggen posted here – even if his photo was 20 years old or so, if I remember correctly.
        Do you only collect different makers, versions etc or do you also have the ambition to buy certain holder´s KCs?

          Forgot to tell you, that I have also met and spoken with Remy Schrijnen, but that was 23 years ago. A very nice man, who refused to wear the 1957 crap round his neck!

              A picture like that will be posted in the near future!!!!
              Did you post a picture of all your KC's together as I would love to see that one as I am sure you have a very nice collection??
              I try to collect all different makers and also the different versions!!! I also collect attributed items!!!

              Currently I am looking for
              A Godet
              A Zimmermann
              A 3/4 ose
              Schickle

              I think this search will be much harder!!!!

                Hi Kevin,

                Nice haircut on that picture ...
                You see how one can change in 10 years, wait 'till you're 36 like me!

                See you soon!!

                  You came up with a new maker! . Glad I found this out in time!

                  ... or could it be you mean "Schickle". The other one (not RK's however) is "Schinkel".

                  All in good spritit, my friend!

                    Hey Ludwig, he wore his original RK?

                    Kevin, did you notice when you met him if it was his awarded piece around his neck?

                    Interesting. I have read where many vets simply wore the RK with 1813 date to the outside.

                      Thanks Dietrich for pointing that out, I made a typing mistake!!!
                      This can happen when I am getting nervous of all the questions asked!!!
                      Don't make the same mistake or you will have another maker in your book!!!

                        Schrijnen lost all of his original awards.
                        His KC (on the picture with Kevin) is some kind of a copy/replacement.

                          Ludwig mentioned he never wore the 57 "crap". I was curious what exactly he WAS wearing then.

                          Any background on how he lost them? Snagged by the allies?
