If you want to criticise someone first walk a mile in their shoes. Then, when they come after you, you'll be a mile ahead and they'll be barefoot.

Cog wheels like like repro castings to me, and the leather looks awfully new. Poor finish on the ends of the metal rod tongue. See what the others say...

Apart from the lower Clips (from luft hangers) I think these hangers are total fakes. Also the Kind of maufacturing is totally wron compared to doubtless originals. Regards,

Thanks all. Luckily the price I paid didn't hurt too much.

These are the repros that have surfaced recently. I don't want to post another way to tell which will help the fakers. Wotan makes reference to it and does not give detail to avoid helping the counterfeiters. If you're interested send me a private message and I will be happy to explain. Regards to all. Ed

Beautiful set! I have a Teno , wish I could get the original hangers and bag. How much would that set me back?
