Hello guys!
Want to show my EK1 early unmarked K&Q who got a matching box to house in. Hope you like them together.

Best regards

Nice cross!
One of my favorite makers of EKs. I believe your example was manufactured later than the one I have.
You can see the die flaws on the beading across the top arm. Your finish is also smoother than mine, mine is more of a flat black.
I also added the case.

Thank you so much for your response, I appreciate it.

Hi Ralph!
Very nice set you have there, K&Q is one of my favorite maker as well.

You can be right and I also see very similar die flow on your cross at 12 o'clock arm.

All the best
Martin

Very nice cross Martin. I also have a beautiful boxed maker marked K&Q EK1. It is my favorite EK in my collection.
