Hi Gagarin
Is the seller in a position to provide other photos? A straight on image of the reverse would show the pin better. I'm certainly not anywhere near knowledgeable enough to take my word as gospel so forgive me as I am typing as I think ha!. I fully expect to get something wrong!
I don't like the claw hook on the back, it resembles the Floch fake. It's not a '15' Orth because it doesn't have the oval baseplate.
Coupled with the hardware, there just seems to be something not right the with the handles of the swords and the way they are shaped.
I've spent the last 30 minutes looking at dozens of KVK1s and I couldn't find one that matches this 100% I could identify parts from other makers but perhaps it's correct what I say that I still have a lot to learn.
Good luck finding the correct answer.
Jamie
Thanks Jamie.
Ok I'm gonna be careful

L/52 is the maker mark for Carl Zimmerman.
Your cross is badly marked 52 which I don't think is a recognised maker.
The hardware does not match Zimmerman.
Let this one go. Or do some reasearch on here or the internet.
I'm sorry Jamie but I read a 62, not a 52..
Check out the other KVK's marked 62 on this Forum, Looks a close match to me ,Regards,Paul
Thanks. I checked it. I see a close match too but I wanted to have other opinions
Sorry I didn't zoom in on the photo earlier. Ignore me!
