My newest purchases arrived today ! Near mint condition Polizei visor cap, 8 year service medal and belt buckle. I already had the collar tabs & shoulderboards but wanted a police display. Kind of like buying a new suit & new shoes to match an old pair of socks

al some very nice polizei items

Bann 53 "Erich Nejahr", HJ Gebeit 11 Koln-Aachen, Obergebiet West, Marine HJ. Unofficially attached cut down KM anchor cyphers. This set looks like Signals but compared side by side to Signals straps the blue color stands out on this pair.

Signals HJ Bann 572 Kufstein, Obergebiet Sud-Ost, HJ Gebiet 33 Tirol-Vorarlberg.

Rottenfuhrer on the Gebietstab of Gebiet 27 Wien.

Newest Acquisition.

US M7 Bayonet and USN Mark2 fighting knife

Don't mind the condition, they are a little dirty. The lady I bought them off was actually using the bayonet to cut vegetables out of her garden!

Hi, there !

Swapped two German "Patrouillendolche", ("Patrol-Dagger´s"), of World War One.

They´re looking like, they were forgotten in some dark cellar or attic over decades ...

The condition of the "F.W. Backhaus" is not so good, but the "Gottlieb Hammesfahr" looks much better !

Both blade´s were heavilly greased.

These are "honest", not overworked or "restaurated" items and IMO they´re still quite collectible.

Rgds.,
