    L15 EKI acquired. Looking for feedback

    I have read through the forums and the consensus is an EK1 with L15 MM are post war. I purchased a document grouping with awards. The EKI and EKII pictured were part of the deal. The EKI catch is round vice angular is the only difference I can see between it and the other posted L15s.

    Please verify this is post war. There is no issue with seller making this right.

                        Andy, the catch is different. This one is tough for me. The group came from a family that in their eyes are 100% sure this is from their family member. I know- evaluate the item and not the story. I guess it is possible the vet replaced after the war and they are unaware.

                          Loggie, yours pictured clearly has a Souval frame & core. The cross pictured by AndyC is just about 100% different, as far as frame AND core (edit) AND catch. Pretty much two different crosses.(end edit)
