Hello guys I would like some help with this zinc based f&BL marked piece. Not much finish to go off …possibly Bronze finish. Looks like a possible repair to the pin. I would like any help as far as authenticity and verification.

Forgive the thread title, but I couldn’t think of a better one for this piece.

So based on my limited understanding, this appears to be an SA Marine dagger (brass-coloured crossguards), with a ground-Rohm blade (based on the vertical ‘F. Dick’ maker mark). There are traces of gold leaf in the ‘Alles fur Deutschland’ blade inscription. Unfortunately, the handle is severely split and repaired, and someone has epoxied the eagle from what looks like an Infantry Assault badge into it!

Based on the ill-fitting lower guard (final pic) I assume this is put together from parts of different daggers. Pity, because the blade is fairly rare considering the maker and gold-leaf inscription, no?

Anyway, take a look:

Hello, I was wondering what type and color of belt did the Schutzpolizei wear during WW2? I have a Schutzpolizei uniform and I am trying to complete it with a correct belt. Did they wear black or brown? Thanks!

Hi everyone, Just curious at to the approximate time frame this headgear star was made,
The hammer and sickle part is attached by 2 prongs, and it’s on the larger side compared to my other ones.
Thanks

Greetings one and all.

Been away in Canada for 3 weeks and already it is like a distant memory.

During that time however, a sword was delivered to my house that I have been saving for over what seems like an eternity.

Thanks to a very patient member of this forum, I am now in possession of this amazing Paul Weyersberg, Lions Head, triple etched Heer sword (say that three times in quick succession and see how you get on!).

Not only are the sword and scabbard in fantastic condition but it is a whole package, with knot, hanger and shoulder strap, each item in great condition.

My photos don’t do it justice but I’m sure you’ll agree that it is a beauty.
