Re: RUKA SS binoculars real or fake?
Hi,
Yes there are a few questions on these,most opinions are that they are real,but there are fakes could you send me the number as I can't read the last few digits,there are two ways to tell one is through the number and the other well I can't say as these fakers get everywhere if you can give me the number I can help

Re: RUKA SS binoculars real or fake?
they are fake markings in my opinion. they were issue field binos and there were no "special" SS binos.

Re: RUKA SS binoculars real or fake?
The photos are of poor quality but I would be very suspicious of these markings, especially with a totenkopf on as well. The SS Runes look like they are slightly different sizes and it all seems very implausible to me.

Re: RUKA SS binoculars real or fake?
Hi,
Then there are two questions you need to ask,first why is it only Ruka binoculars that have these and second there have been found three examples dug up,two in Russia one in Italy

Re: RUKA SS binoculars real or fake?
Thats very interesting, do you have any pictures of the others?
Edit-I have looked thiese up on the web and indeed it seems there are examples thought to be genuine, so disregard my opinion on this matter.

Re: RUKA SS binoculars real or fake?
No you are right they have been faked as many other german items have been,i will look out the photos for you,anything with sigrunes on has be regarded as dodgy,

Thanks.
Peakman, I expect my fellow collectors will want clearer pictures of these markings to give an opinion on their authenticity.
