Thanks for all the kind comments and the "likes".

I also have this Rbnr marked webbing belt: but this one is very hard to read due to the faint ink stamp. I have tried all the "tricks of the trade" to attempt to make it out: misting with water, taking a pic in negative and playing around with the pic in photoshop, and I still cannot read it with any real confidence.

Cheers, Ade.

Bravo, Adrian, a job of subtle and pleasing research. This sort of effort by our leader shows why this site is well superior to the others, where such an effort would be totally beyond the reach of most there.

A new sucess story here. I discovered an old thread in the buckles forum while moving threads over to the new Luftwaffe buckles sub forum and I have now identified the maker:
