Can you please identify this police award?

I am interested in this item and would like to know if anyone knows what it is or if it is real.

My new NSKK dagger i picked up today.

Ok, i picked this up from a vet, he took it from the soldier as he put it, he said there was a black sheath, but he did not bother taking that, just the dagger as the sheath was attached to the body.

Over the years he had that leather sheath made up for it, to try and protect the blade.

I have a couple of SA, and NSKK sheaths for it in the safe.


And it was way cheap.

WW2 M1 HELMET with HAWLEY LINER

Hi All, Here's an M1 I have had for quite a while, & would like your opinions. British lids are more my thing, so any info you could give would be great. I'm not sure if the white bars are original, but they look quite old. thanks. Aaron.

Great collection if you ever get a chance to go...sell your first born and your leftie. cool militaria

Stg 44 and FG 42 just in case you aren't familiar with them.

2 days searching

Hi there guys,

Have been digging for 2 days and didn't find much of interest.
A lot of old rusty iron.

However i found some interesting pieces.
- A bottom of a 10,5 cm steel casing from the Germans
- A Dutch casing dated 1934.
- A Black thingy which i believe was used in a searchlight.
- A piece from a farmers working tool/device.
- Some other stuff.

The most interesting find was a piece of a Tellermine.

Not much but quite interesting thoughcool militaria


cheers
