Tony Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 This is my favourite and the maker is LV. The ribbon is more than likely post war but it looks good.It has more than one friend so I've pictured it a few of them.Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Gregory Posted June 13, 2005 Share Posted June 13, 2005 My favourite 1914 EK2 is marked with a simple "G", closely followed by KO's, WILM's, SW's, etc.It is somewhere on one of these bars and has a lot of friends./David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

landsknechte Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 (edited) I'm torn between two of mine, a high-quality Godet that's in nearly perfect condition... Edited June 16, 2005 by landsknechte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
landsknechte Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 ...and this "M" marked EK that was at an antique shop alongside a veteran's badge from a Brunswick infantry regiment (which was unfortunately scooped up by someone else). Hard to explain really, but it has a tangible "presence" about it. Just feels like a piece of history. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
