Hi Guys, Can I get your opinions on this one. I like it. Thanks, Nathan

IMO not original. Different neck as on the genuine pièces.

As Wim stated it is not a good one. Also the catch & makers mark are not correct... there is a thread over at the hj-research forum on these here is a link to it.

and there is a video by Jo on youtube which is very good.

Hi,

the first one is a copy. The second one a nice original.

I have doubts about both of these. The first one is definitely a fake. The second is either a fake or we need some better pictures. It is also possible the zinc corrosion and angle on the second one is distorting the image to make it look questionable. Here is a link to an original for sale on the e-stand.

Thanks for the link Ron. The close ups show that my areas of concern were due to the pics in this thread not being close up enough. Good badge.
