It's a dangerous one. The core tries to imitate Deumer's, the frames however are far from the real deal (weird shape of the arms, cross hatching on the inner corners).

Please compare yours with these two:

EK II fake?

and

Ekii schenkel cross ?

Nick has totally right, this is a known copy so called "Latvian Fake"
