FAKE!

Just kidding

Very nice, a bit salty but that gives it that 'been there' look

It feels nice to get that first one doesn't it?

A bit rusty but original

I think it's great -- and even more so with the maker mark struck in that position!

I have a KVK marked 4, but the 'box' it's in is horizontal, not vertical as seen here, is that OK too?

Nice!

I have to pick up my first one of these days.

There's some nice patina -- but, there's also some not nice rust.

You need to remove the rust. If not, it will continue to spread and eat the metal.
