Dolphin13 Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 Hi All, I'm a newbie here. i just picked up a pair of Black K horns, and I'm trying to decipher the label info. I printed off the The great info that Grromlakearea51 posted in 2016, but i want to make sure i am correct. The code and serial numbers are KBB17-00110006 and 005. I'm confused on the KBBK17. From what i understand the first two letters would mean Khorn type B (Collared), but then There is no color code listed for the BK. i know they are Black, but i see that there is a Black Birch which would be BB. So if the KB is what i think it is, then what is the BK and what does the 17 represent? Would that number be the Grill/Cloth code? (Duracrest, black poly-olefin, stranded coarse weave)?. i read over the info several times and couldn't locate where that info is located. Next, the serial number is 00110006005. from what i read, this should mean that it is year 2000 and the 11th week of the year correct? thanks for any help on this! I've learned alot reading the posts on here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
