Non magnetic EK1

[_THULE_]

Hi guys, last time I saw EK1 non magnetic variation (I think brass core), do You know which manufacturers were producing them? This one is marked L16, which indicates Steinhauer & Lück, I know that Ferkinand Hoffstatter was manufacturing non magnetic EK1 but don't if there was more producers.

Hi Thule,

here are some more
L/12
L/14
L55
L58

and most likely there are even more.

Best regards,
Ben

right on the L/19.... early on I had an L/11 fool me, the Swastika and date had the finish off showing what looked like a brass core! I got it home and BAM the magnet stuck! I quickly learned about the copper colored wash Deumer used on their early cores!
