Interesting Ritterkreuz

Brian-


Somebody who is very knowledgable regarding RKs thinks so. He subtly suggested I cancel a thread about the difference in hangers for junckers RKs so as not to tip off the fakers about the differences.

Oh yes, the Grand High Poobah Society of RK Owners. Yeah, I've had my discussions with them. Not nearly as knowledgeable as they think. If you have something to say, you should say it. Don't let the self appointed, that is to say self appointed, Gawds stop you from injecting any knowledge into this hobby. He who spends or has spent the most on this hobby is not by a long shot the most knowledgeable.

Well, Dave, I almost had you. I recently showed my round corner, the one with a perfect hanger, that is to say, the one with the perfect hanger, to Tim Calvert. Maybe it was the Luftwaffe dagger I had pokeing him in the ribs, but he said he thought it was if not the nicest made of my RK's, at least as well made. Dave, that's the one with the perfect hangers in case you didn't catch that earlier. You know, Dave, the Meybauer with the perfect hangers?

Yes, BH I understand!! However, those perfect rounders and their perfect loops

I wonder if someone might show us some close-up photos of the hand finishing (filing) of one of these....?

Oh no, is this post turning in to a rounder...

Here you go.

Just to add to the confusion, but not to doubt the authenticity of the RK, here's a reason why a young collector may have 'assumed' wrongly that the RK was a K&Q.

Only goes to show that you can't tell a book (or RK) by the cover.

I don't have any problem with the case by the way, passes all the tests!
