Do a little better research next time you choose to post a comment of something you obviously dont have enough knowledge about!

So sorry for the bad call on your precious KM helmet,bit touchy aren't you though?,I never said I was an expert,(just gave an opinion thats all)some like to think they are on this forum,but hey ho i only own 2 original KM helmets so that makes me a newbie here one stamped ET the other CKL maybe i'd better go out and buy some more,hopefully that way I'll gain some more knowledge that obviously you think I sadly lack
Talk to me like asshole ,i'll treat you like one,good manners don't cost anything,hopefully you'll learn.

Quist lotnr DN105 is both KM and Heer, but imho it should be a KM one..

No problem with the decal.

Haaving, English Bob is at least being polite, which you are not.

I really appreciate all your comments on this one.

I'm glad it turned out to be KM and not a toned heer.

Best regards,
André

Here's a decal for comparison. Same tone of gold as yours, NOR_collector. This helmet and decal have been approved as genuine KM at Walhalla.

Hi André,
I'm big enough to say i got it wrong and made a bad callnot the first mistake and probably won't be the last
I'm pleased for you that you found a KM with a very nice decal to add to your KM collection,always a tough bird to find in good condition imho.

Cheers

The picture are poor at best and my first thought was this was a toned WH. Opinions were asked for a a polite answer was given and then others have bashed away at him for it. KM are a study all in itself decal wise and am glad I learned something today about the "Q" KM.

Agree jerry.

Maybe you should do a little better research next time you choose to buy a helmet and then ask the forum for help.

Good KM

[NARVIK1940]

Good pictures are key. I liked the first close up shot of the decal. KM for me. I have two KM Q62 helmets with Lot nr. DN 110.

Here is the decal on one of them. It is hard to capture the gold flake appearance on these. I found this one in Norway in 2008. Nice to see several Norwegian members here!

Øi! Jeg kjenner igjen dette fra han Jan M. som presenterte den på GHW for en stund tilbake. Visste ikke at han ville selge den! Bra fangst, gitt!

indeed, good pictures is a must before starting a topic.
this last close up is more convincing.

EF KM ? sure

The "HJ&K" also named "thin wings" decals deserve to be named "EF KM decals", they can be found on 95% of the EF KM helmets.........


This one is not an HJ&K one, it is an "ET" decal.

Maybe you're right! I didn't wear my glasses

Note the grey green lines on these.
