Cased Vaulted Ek1

[Van]

Hello, I hope I do not offend anyone, Im still new to the forums and have a question about an cased EK1 that I am interested in and is for sale at collectorsmilitaria.com.... the discription is a "cased vaulted ek1" and is $400. a reasonable price for it.
I would appreciate any comments on the cross and case if it is authentic.
Like I said, I do not want to offend anyone, Im still and will always be learning more about collecting. Thanks to anyone who can help.

Hi, can you tell us what item number it is? That would make it easier.

thanks
Hank

Edit: I'd be careful about that one. That style of hinge is found on lots of post 1945 crosses. I'm not saying it's 100% fake, but I'd be careful of it. You can probably find a good example here on the forum that's 100% good.
