Gordon Williamson Posted June 13, 2005 Author Share Posted June 13, 2005 Thanks Laurence. Wasn't cheap, but I couldn't resist it, it makes a perfect companion for the full size Steinhauer RK.Beautiful Gordon← Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glenn R Posted June 20, 2005 Share Posted June 20, 2005 They still seem relatively undervalued when you consider the rocketing prices of other more common awards. Although "relatively" is by no means cheap. Lovely set! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Williamson Posted June 20, 2005 Author Share Posted June 20, 2005 I agree, when you think of the kind of prices Knight's Crosses of the Iron Cross are fetching, yet they are not that rare. I could probably point to a couple of dozen original Knight's Crosses of the EK on various sites right now. Try finding a good cased RK of the KVK . Not many around.Mind you these mini RK of the KVK are very expensive. This one cost me the price of a good full size German Cross.They still seem relatively undervalued when you consider the rocketing prices of other more common awards.

Glenn R Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 I can appreciate the mini being so expensive. That must be incredibly rare. The quality looks astonishing and to be in a purpose made case too. Personally, I've never seen one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Williamson Posted June 21, 2005 Author Share Posted June 21, 2005 There are actually two versions of the case. The other is longer, the additional section containing two stickpin miniatures. The case lining and exterior covering is identical for both types.The detail is indeed stunning. Most miniatures look quite good until you look at them in extreme close up, but this little beaut is perfect. The stippling to the arms of the cross is astonishing, likewise the detail to the sword hilts etc.Reinforces my own personal feeling that very few other manufacturers approach Steinhauer for quality.

JBeltram Posted June 21, 2005 Share Posted June 21, 2005 Hi Gordon,Those are two absolutley wonderful pieces. I hope to someday add a RK des Kvk with swords to the version I have without swords. I loved those cased minis.You have some great stuff!Regards,Jody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
