Your a very lucky Australian, My favourite out of the two has to be the second, it has so much more character with the swastika a little more worn.
Both are very nice K&Q.

They're both wonderful pieces, but I too would like the second piece. It's wear, and the ribbon assembly are absolutely awesome!

As the others I prefer the second KC.
It is wonderful.
