LAH or Polizei white bayonet frog genuine?

**Adyraphael** · 03-11-2013, 08:31 PM

This bayonet frog is original white I do not think so skin looks pretty new and missing rivets.
Mark (think Bruno Lebberr Breslau 1938?) I've never met a white frog is certainly a fake.
Want and opinion some experienced collectors have seen similar things.
Thanks moderators and collectors!

First is for sale and I think it is replica and the second was found to be a fake (probably Polish) on another forum.
Want and opinion some collectors on the first (no rivets) and the skin looks fairly new.

I have both white frogs, one with rivets and one which is the same as your post #1 and also the white belt for LAH and I do not have a problem with them.
You are correct that the white finish does not wear well as it tends to crack and fall off if you are not careful but as these things were for parade they tend to be in reasonable condition.
I have also asked if the frog with rivets was LAH and the one without was (perhaps) police but I got no real information either way.
Post #2 does look a bit different but I think that this is just the lighting in the photograph and if this is indeed a fake I would be interested
to find out more as I know that mine were in a collection for a long time before I got them.

Hallo... it is not a fake... this is an original frog made in 1938. Maker Bruno Leppert. The Material of the base is composit... no leather. This frogs are realy rare.

This frogs were manly made for the police.

A model with rivets and composite base was made by Fischer Berlin in 1938. This model is also rare.

**Sleepwalker** · 04-01-2013, 01:16 PM

a few other were made out of withe lacquered leather... as here for example. Po is the police acceptance.

I have never looked around SS bayonet frog, because is too many copies on the market for my taste.
If these originals, congratulations, these bayo frog look very good.
