Extremely happy with this Knights Cross. A bit new looking out of the box but nothing a bit of artistic insight couldn’t fix! Thanks Feldgrau

It is better than i expected! No imperfection on the paint whatsoever, the stitching has one or two string ends out but everything is perfect for a price like this. I waited a few weeks to get here but i guarantee, its worth the wait. Congrats on your work guys, you deserve it!

A very nice reproduction Knight’s Cross, especially as an affordable piece for reenactment, display or completing a uniform setup. The ribbon looks particularly good and gives the piece a convincing overall appearance when worn.
For anyone looking for a practical reproduction rather than an expensive collector-grade copy, this does the job very well. It looks great as part of a complete uniform and is a nice addition to a reenactment collection.
Another enjoyable item from Feldgrau Militaria and in my case an unexpected extra that was very much appreciated. Thank you
