Saw this a few days ago and this is the first chance I've had to post it. It's on Ebay (wonder of wonders!). No bids so relisted. Starting bid... GBP 74.99 / $108.43 U.S.

Here's the description:

ORIGINAL GERMAN 1957 VERSION OAKLEAVES, SWORDS AND DIAMONDS FROM STEINHAUER & LUCK, LUDENSCHEID.

JUST GOT FROM A GERMAN DEALER 100% ORIGINAL, SIDE OF LOOP HAS A MARK BUT CAN'T READ IT

THIS HAS 2 DIAMONDS SET IN IT, THE LEFT DIAMOND HAS ONLY 3 PRONGS OF THE ORIGINAL 4 LEFT OTHERWISWE IN MINT CONDITION.

I'M NOT SURE IF THE DIAMONDS ARE REAL BUT THEY DO SCRATCH GLASS SO I ASSUME THEY ARE.

I don't even bother to scratch my head and wonder anymore.

Diamond test?

Glass scratches glass. in fact quartz will scratch glass.

It may not be much but I thought I'd offer it anyway.

These are in fact absolutely genuine austerity pattern Diamonds from April/May 1945, according to some sources, and were made by the same firm that produced the Rounder Knight's Cross.
