EK I unmarked no magnetic cased

[Gerner]

Hey all i have this Ek I in my collection,but i don´t now if it are real or fake.

it is unmagnetic. the case is stamped LDO and L/53 (see the pictures) with your opinions and comments.

the pictures from the rear side is a litle overlighted

[George Stimson]

Not the clearest pics, but I'm sure that's not an "L/53". W&L maybe?

[Adrian]

From the pics it looks like an original W&L. I don't know if the case is good or not so hopefully someone else can add their opinion on that.
W&L had the number L/55 so if the case is definitely marked L/53 it doesn't match the cross, might be worth a closer look to confim the number though and make sure it isn't L/55.

'L/53' is Hymmen. Are you sure the stamp is not 'L/55'? The cross is a W&L.

No doubt as Robert said ... a W&L tombak core EK1 .
