My new Deutsche Schutzwall Ehrenzeichen

I recently got this Westwall medal, it’s in an amazing condition and the pouch is in good condition and marked Moritz Hausch A.G

Hope you like it ;)

Lion head sword - thoughts?

Hello Everyone,

I’m a brand new member of these forums, so please be patient with me. I have a lion head sword, and thanks to the help of MAP and AZPhil, I was directed to this forum to post pictures and ask for help identifying/describing what I have.

The sword was given to me 35 years ago by my great-uncle. He served in the US Army in WWII and brought this back with him. It has essentially been untouched since he gave it to me, and now I’m looking to learn more about it.

I know very, very little about these, so apologies in advance for my ignorance. I don’t know all of the correct terms for describing the various features and parts. I’m here to listen and learn, and look forward to interacting with anyone who is willing to.

Pictures follow. If anyone wants to see a close up of something specific, or a different angle, I’d be happy to take more. I have made no attempt to clean or polish the blade, handle, scabbard, or anything else because I don’t know if that is the correct thing to do, or a no-no.

Thank you very much in advance for any help. Your expertise on these forums is much appreciated.

WKC Police Bayonet - Thoughts?

Hello Everyone,

I’m a brand new member of these forums, so please be patient with me. I have a WKC police bayonet, and thanks to the help of MAP and AZPhil, I was directed to this forum to post pictures and ask for help identifying/describing what I have.

The bayonet was given to me 35 years ago by my great-uncle. He served in WWII and brought this back with him. It has essentially been untouched since he gave it to me, and now I’m looking to learn more about it.

I know very, very little about these, so apologies in advance for my ignorance. I don’t know all of the correct terms for describing the various features and parts. I’m here to listen and learn, and look forward to interacting with anyone who is willing to.

Pictures follow. If anyone wants to see a close up of something specific, or a different angle, I’d be happy to take more. One thing to note: the pinkish color on the middle sections of the blade is not a reflection or weird lighting; that color has been there since I got it. I have made no attempt to clean or polish the blade, handle, grips, scabbard, or anything else because I don’t know if that is the correct thing to do, or a no-no.

Thank you very much in advance for any help. Your expertise on these forums is much appreciated.

M35 SD Luftwaffe Helmet (your thoughts please)

Hello friends,

I am seriously thinking about buying this helmet from William of BSR Militaria but would like to get your thoughts first.
Being a newbie at this, and still working on developing a sixth sense on when to know to dive in vs walk away, I would really appreciate your comments.

Here are the pics (hope the quality is good enough):

I would like to point out that William has been very pleasant, helpful and professional in the communication we have had up to now.

Thanks
Derek
