            The EK II has a well known spanish-made design.
            I have the same version, too.

                These are very interesting to me, does anyone really know about these? Is there a way to authenticate them?

                Best, Sal

                    It is known that the Spanish and Japanese made eks , and made in a way that is inferior looking compared to German made ones. I don't think there is really solid info on these though (as in a database of what originals look like, or if there is I would be very happy to see it as I would like a Spanish made ek very much!)

                      man I'd love a japanese one!
                      I think I've only seen one, has anyone got a pic of it?

                        from a collectors standpoint, i would love to have these in my collection but how bummed would you be if all of your comrades have received a nice frosty K&Q or zimmerman or whatever, and you receive one of these . . .

                          These things are very contentious.
                          Have read a few threads on WAF about these & the conclusions seem to be very much decided by who puts one up for opinions.
                          I don't think coming from Mr Nieman makes much difference as it is a piece of Spanish militaria.
                          Having said that, i like this more than others i have seen & would love to own one & have some conclusive information on how to spot an original.
                          there are opinions on these stated here but nobody ever seems able to say what features to look for.
                          Ant.
