Before the war many of the companys that we know as producers of bravery decorations produced hosehold items. Door knobs, door signs, heaters, cookery items... K&Q made clock chains before the war. They all had in common that they had worked with metal in one way or another. That is why you in some of the company names can read "metallwaren". Companys as Deschler & Sohn, Steinhauer & Lück and a few other was the only true producers of decorations by tradition when the war started.

Hi Peter
That's fine,thanks
But what I meant was german militaria related.
So far I know that they made RK,BWB,SWB,GWB,Ostmedals,KVK 2nd class with swords, but here stops my knowledge list.
I was just wondering if someone could complete this list and make it extensive not only to awards, but to belt buckles,etc....
I would like to get into K&Q or 65 marked collectibles
Thanks for your fast reply

Hello,
With your permit I would like to bring this old thread to life and see if anyone can provide me with a list of K&Q produced items.
Apart from awards I know that they also did belt buckles.
Is it somewhere I can look for a complete list of K&Q products during WW2?
Many thanks
Ace

"So far I know that they made RK,BWB,SWB,GWB,Ostmedals,KVK 2nd class with swords, but here stops my knowledge list."

Also the KVK 1 with swords. And the EKs 1 and 2, of course.

Hi George
I forgot to update that info in my last years post, thanks a lot.
But apart from the ones mentioned, is there any other award or item made by K&Q during WW2?
Many thanks
Ace

K&Q produced items

Hi Ace,

You can add KVK2 without swords to this list as well. I too am collecting 65 marked items.

What do you have so far? I'm after a KVK1 at the moment plus a decent GWB. I hope they produced the KVK1 without swords as well but I have never seen one and I have no evidence.

Cheers

I can second that

Hi all,
I too also have a very nice KVK 2nd class without swords marked 65 for Klein & Quenzer !

This is what I found on german wikipedia.

Verwundetenabzeichen (Schwarz, Silber, Gold)
Medaille Winterschlacht im Osten
Medaille für Kriegsverdienst
Kriegsverdienstkreuz 1. und 2. Klasse mit und ohne Schwerter
Eisernes Kreuz 1. und 2. Klasse
Medaille 1. Oktober 1938
Deutsches Schutzwall-Ehrenzeichen
Treuedienstehrenzeichen in Silber
Ritterkreuz des Eisernen Kreuzes 1939
Deutsches Kreuz in Gold

I don't know how reliable this can be, cause wikipedia can be editted by everybody.

I would love to see some pictures of the october medal, the westwall and the faithfull service medal. That is because I want them in my collection off Klein & Quenzer awards.

regards
