    Sometimes ugly is beautiful

    An old aged unmarked Deumer...the older it gets the more beautiful...

    The patina is a rich charcoal blue.

        It would be interesting to find out where it was stored over the last 65 years.

          this patina is interesting, as it looks like its worn off, on the corners, and especially the swords, and it certainly doesn't looked cleaned.

          Very cool

            How's this for ugly/beautiful? It's a double-marked Zimmermann.

                  George,

                  That's doubly beautiful! What character. I can see this piece on an eastern front vet.

                    a zimmermann ek1 can never be called ugly, no matter the condition (IMHO)

                          That looks like the kind of patine my grandfathers stuff had on it, and I think it was due to him being a very heavy smoker.

                              Only fake EKs are ugly, I have only seen 1 good looking fake, here on the forum, but with a hand inspection it might be easy to spot the good looking fake as well?
