EK1 Help needed!!

[Aska]

Hello all!

I had an EK1 for many years and i always thought it to be a real one. I have been reading all your links and now i begin to feel cold winds up my neck about it. This one i have is marked "4" on the pin, and i guess there is no one posted here to compare with...
Could anyone member please post a "4" marked one here for me to look at?

Soon i will be a member so i can post a picture of it.

This should also be made by Luck in ludenshied?

Correct me if i am wrong...(only been collecting for 30 years)

Dear Aska,

You have got a good humour!

Here is a pic of a double marked Steinhauer & Lück EK 1. The "normal" version you are referring to just has the "4" mark centered on the pin, the rest of the details and features is the same.

Cheers, Frank
