    He could have at least put on the DKiG correctly! Geez...

    Wonder if the ribbon bar is correct. I can see what looks like a Heer Long Service ribbon.

    What I like about the Souval copies is that at least ( many ) were made from original tooling by an original maker and somewhere I read that the tell-tale cutout catch was deliberately done to identify the later production to satisfy market demand. Maybe the 'drop 3' was also done deliberately?
