Here is the pic of my old L55.

This is the only i could find, it`s from the auction.

Hi Oliver: i guess that settles it they really do exist, thanks and good luck with your new ek2 , excellent condition.

Maker mark L55

Hi Oliver

Excellent example of an L55 and with the marked box makes it a real treasure. Welcome to the scarce L55 club. You know I had to post a pic of mine. Have you ever seen one with wear or heavy patina?

Hello Mametz,

there are only two makers, who marked their crosses in the frame, L/12 and L55.

For the L/12 i was searching some years and for the L55 it took some month, too. They are very rare, like most of the LDO marked EK2.

Here is my L/12 EK2.

Regards,

Oliver

Hi Everyone: a little late on thread response it's been a while. Here you go with another L/56 EK2 enjoy.

Wow Rick - for a "new" blade collector, you've gotten off to an excellent start!

Hi Guys;

I started getting intrested about July 2007 just looking at the various forums and checking out what other collectors had in their collections. I purchased my first dagger SA in December 2007 and the others in 2008. Thanks for your kind words and thanks Paul for consolidating my posts as I said it's been a while since may last post.
