    Hello members!
    I’ve just found this KC, it is said to be a later quality postwar B-Frame S&L KC. Crosses are not really my expertise, so your assistance really matters to me.
    It’s stamped 800, and has a magnetic core.
    Thank you! I would be more than grateful to hear your opinions!

    Quality and finish isn't up to the standard of a pre 1945 RK. I think the consensus is most were made well after the war ended. But i'm sure there are RK owners who will have opinions as well.

    I am also defenitly not an expert, but comapring with reference material in my books and online, I would not buy this one. Markings not on the correct place and the finish of the swords is rough. The back of the swords has no detail, where it should. For as far as I can see on the compressed photos.

    See the links below for reference.

    Hello hvm,
    The oaks and swords is a S&L 57er product, which is what they should be like, not as delicate as a pre45 model. My main question is about the cross itself. Now I know that it is not a B-Frame but could be a C-Frame with FAKE 800 stamp. Is that correct? A C-Frame S&L?
    Thank you!
