Single piece Alu Heer buckle, maker FKO.

[Lenny Warren]

Hi guys,

I've been offered this buckle, any thoughts? Maker FKO will be Friedrich Keller, Oberstein?

Cheers,
Lenny

Very cool buckle, I like the wear ;-)

[Lenny Warren]

Got this today, pretty happy with it. Came with a good combat worn belt. I love salty combat wear items, don't like mint unissued. For me it's always been about the history. I like to know the item has been combat used, a bit like my Normandy bring back Heer buckle and belt, straight from the veteran

Hello gentleman... My name is Gwar..My question is this.. After several studies and digging
were there any variants regarding F.K.O. buckles... Makers marks for instance ?
F.K.O. in a horizontal line or a F.K. horizontal and the "O" underneath between forming a triangular makers mark ?? I have searched the threads on this forum and thus so far have drawn naught...Gwar

Hi Gwar and welcome on board a good question posed there and off the top of my head I dont think I have seen other varitions of markings on aluminium buckles.

Can you show another ?
