    Hinge and catch are wrong material. What is the spurious mm stamp on the back ending 'Berlin'??

    O.K. thanks. Godet didn't make Allgemeines Sturmabzeichen, ergo.......

    Hi, as Ned has already said, the hinge and catch are wrong. The steel pin also looks brand new too, ideal for making Kebabs! Leon.

    I think the second line of the maker mark said....made in India. It was a gift, so no loss. I will have to get a replacement. This item will be destroyed.

    I wouldn't destroy it. There are several GENUINE collectors that buy in fakes to study them. My mate Fischer takes in fake ISA's to research. Stewy

    I have to trash it. Everything fake I ever bought or received gets destroyed. One less hunk of junk floating around.

    Entirely your choice. But fakes, in the right hands have some importance in helping the hobby forward. Stewy
