Steve campbell Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 This sweet example just arrived. It's an EK1 with the blued core, marked Silber on the rear. I'm really happy with this one. These blued cores are nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorhead Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Another one I have to look for! Greg,are you sure that the core is blued? I can't tell from the pics(but you've got it in your hands to judge it better)Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregM Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Yes,The cross is not in the best shape but the core is definately blued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Motorhead Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Being back from a collectors meeting yesterday evening(SDA and MFF members)...I had your EK type in hands! Greg-you need a big washer(2 holes) and you are right with the blued core.....they painted the blued core! The EK I had a look on was in nearly perfect condition.....just a little loss on the 3'o clock crossarm.....under the paint it was blued! The hunting season is opened!Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gregM Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 (edited) .....under the paint it was blued!I don't know what to think about that. I looked mine over againand I didn't see any evidence of it ever being painted.Greg( WOW-I just realized. This is a Ek variation that I have and you don'talready have in your vast collection--that doesn't happen very often ) Edited January 7, 2008 by gregM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Motorhead Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 The one I've seen was clearly painted! And where the paint was gone it was blued-and the painting was "professional" done,no traces at the frame! I emailed him to get some pics....Micha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
