Unfortunately the Mk2 is a much later "reproduction" - some might use the word fake. These are turning up from time to time. Even auction houses sell them as the real deal

Looks nothing like a Mk2 should.

The Jodhpur looks fine. The consensus now is that these were made towards the end of WW2 or just after.
