    Can you Disassemble a Knight's Cross/EK II

    How can you disasseble refinish and reassmble EKs. Is this even possible? I have what I beleiv emay be (but probably ins't a poor souval copy (I'll attach a pic later) and I would like to re-blacken the core and refinish the frame in silver plate, or even have it dipped( if that's possible). Any suggestions?

    Still looking for an early quality 57 RK.

    If you have a copy, you may do what you want with it.
    If you have a original Iron Cross...you should do nothing of the kind!

      I suppose you can have anything done if you take a piece to a competent enough jeweler.

        If its original don’t touch it!,but if its a copy I guess you would have to heat up the silver frame with a torch until the solder starts to melt and then remove the 2 sections of frame to reveal the iron core. However trying to re-solder it could be tricky unless your good at soldering. But to be honest i think its more hassle than its worth. I would leave it as it is

          ya good luck!

          no for real it would cost you just as much if not more to have that done, than you spent on the cross. also you would have to cut the frame and then have a jewler reattach the frame. $$$$$$

          you could mask off the frame and then after you stripped the paint repaint it?
          but if you cut the frame you'd beable to tell.

          why don't you just but a NEW copy of the award and then IT WOULD BE LIKE YOU WANT???
