Opinions on EKI EKII and Spange

[Mark Holmes]

Hi guys , i have been asked n opinion on these items from a friend of mine , and although i am confident when in hand , something doesnt look good with these to me. My first thought is that they look artificially aged , like blackened rather than patina on the EKI. The EKII looks strange in that the dates and swaz are all off centered . As for the spange i know nothing about them at all so any opinions on any of the pieces would be gratefully appreciated.v
thanks in advance....Mark

Thanks mate. All opinions welcome....

I think the EK2 is an original, maybe a '24'? Obviously really heavily worn, as if it spent the war in the recipients pocket. If the core was/is loose it will explain how it shifted off centre.
Not sure on the other two but hope someone else can chip in on those.

Hello

All look good to me. The EK2 I also think is a '24' and the spange a Deumer. Not sure on the EK1 maker.
