Nahkampfspange in silver unmarked S&L ???

[raz]

Hey guys, you were so helpful on my last post thought you might look at this one . Looks like Steinhauer & Luck with the big beak . I think it is a 1.16.4 with the small catch plate but it has the rectangle hinge plate not the oval hinge plate . Any comments welcome .thank you , Raz

Actually, I think this is a 1.16.5 with that shape for the hinge base.

Thanks Ralph but the 1.16.5 has the cutout catch and the 1.16.3 .4 and .6 have the flat wire catch just different catch plates per Mr Durante's book . Could be someone at the factory had extra flat wire catches ?? Just a thought . Raz

Hi Raz, as far as I can tell that is indeed 1.16.5 St&L nahkampfspange.

Best regards,
Franko
