Opinions on this Eisernes Kreuz 1. Klasse

[ADIDAS]

I am considering purchasing this. I wanted to get the pros opinions on it. Does it look legit?

I would pass on it, I don't recall ever seeing an L/18 with this reverse set up.
Mayer crosses all seem to have a barrel hinge and round wire catch.
I might be wrong but have a search and see if you can find one that matches this one.....

Marking looks a bit weird, but it seems to be a good S&L.

Adrian, for me it looks like /16, missing the L.

Good eyes. That's the trouble with getting older and looking at a phone image.

In that case, it appears to be a good Steinhauer & Luck.
