The chinstrap (not the leather holding the strap) looks like the actual strap maybe it came off, the little metal buckle looks just like the ones on the fire helmets.

That's a varation chinstrap seen on fire helmets I have collector friend that has several Ludwig Baer in his fire police helments book explains and shows them. Scabbard appears for fighting knife and could be a repo hard to say. timothy
Here are pics of the scabbard, the inside looks to have age to it.
Better pictures of the liner and straps are needed.

This is the only mark I can find
That scabbard is for a boot-knife...
cheers, Glenn
I have found a buckle almost exactly like mine mine is the more box shaped buckle the oval is the one I found
Any markings in the skirt of the helmet shell?
Not that I can see
One of the rivits holding the liner in is marked either IKA 44 or LKA 44 that's the only other mark I can find but I'll keep looking
