Looking for a portapee reference book
Hello folks! I have posted here several times about identifying portapees. i was wondering if there was a reference book i could buy that would help me identify various portapees and other items of German uniforms.
George Wheelers book History of the German Bayonet 1919-1945 is a very good reference and has a chapter on knots and portapees. The Brain Davis books German Army Uniforms and Insignia 1933-1945 has some useful info. Not as good as the Wheeler book but I have seen it on eBay at cheap prices.

George Wheeler's book "Seitengewehr" is an excellent reference, including some decent info on bayonet portepees.
