EKI Pimp my paintjob opinions welcome

[R. Schmitt]

Howdy - Whatch'all think about this EK here? - Stumbled over it today but I let it stay there for now.
Nice paintjob, I've seen this kind on onepiece WW1 EKs and a few WW2 EK2s before...
Thanks for any opinions

Hello,

A reproduction.

Thanks, Bill! any particular (known) kind? It's not a Floch that I know, although the hardware resembles one...

Hello again,

The reverse does resemble a Floch to me but the beading looks more like a rounder style cross.

I don't like it either.
Floch set-up, very unusula obverse, AND they are popping up to often to my likings.

We have seen these a number of times lately, not something I would want in my collection.

Best regards,
Ben

Besides all of the above it's just an ugly example of a EK1

thanks a lot for all replies - the inner corner roundings resemble Souval, the hardware the Flochs. As I stated above - I think I saw these inner corners before (the small "v"s in each rounding's beading circled in the pic below), I know I've seen this one before, just can't recall where...
Thanks, guys!
Rainer
