Hey Guys,
Picked up 2 swords the other day and need some help figuring out what they are. Is there anyone here who can read what is stamped on the tang? Are these WWII or maybe even older? This post I will show the bottom swords tang, the sword with the leather scabbard. Should I clean..leave as is for now? Thanks for any help.
Rgds, Mike

Belt Thread for Steveibee

The belt has a bitumen kind of finish to it? Is this original or added after? Could it have been buffed to create a high gloss finish?

I’ve also found a large heavy linen/cotten swastika in the traditional cream and red which has dark blood patches on it. Does anyone know if these are worth anything to anyone as to be honest i’m not very keen on keeping it!

I can also remember my grandad’s uniform was hung in the outside toilet along with a heavy woolen coat that some nuns made him in France, these went missing and it turns out my uncle burnt them on a fire along with loads of other stuff my grandad had brought back from the war! Why? God only knows…

battlefound SS overhoff buckle from retreat area

SS overhoff buckle found in a retreat area years ago. The conditions aren't bad, after many years on the ground. It was found in a pinetree wood so the pine leaves drained the water,or at least this is my assumption :)
