Markus, stop trying to convince the infidel!
Now I read: Pre War. Boy, oh boy. What period
must that be? It is just fighting a losing battle.
They rather believe nonsense instead of knowledge
and research.
Maybe it is getting time to back-off from this forum,
or anyway from the buckle-section.
What Wewelsburg says is the only good thing:
"it still is a great buckle" and that is a true fact!
Wow! "Infidel". That was Rich. Your such a professional Wim that name calling frankly is beneath even the great Mr. Saris. I see that you have not proved anymore than I have on this buckle. Pre-War 1937 (period). Show me proof in your regulations or in a book, publication of yours on buckles that this buckle is post war. Prove it! Publish your research and stop pouting because I am not bowing to your assessment. I am not drinking the kool-aid you're pouring. I won't stand by and be insulted.
I am done here. I doubt I will be missed like Big Ned, Mr. Berthold or others. All this for no proof over a $40.00 buckle. Shameful and a pity.
I see you added “they would rather believe in nonsense than knowledge and research”. Pretty bold and ego rich statement. Does that mean when we (since more than I) disagree with you we are all infidels, uninformed, second class and stupid?”
Since you are far superior than I and others please, please don’t leave us. Wish you well. I am out. I have grown tired tired of the nit picking, insults, ego, demeaning attitude and arrogance. It is a shame your superior knowledge can not be tempered with some grace and humbleness at times. You are Not Omniscient Mr. Saris.

What is this all about ? Now you are reducing yourself to name calling ? What is meant by "Infidel" ? Explain please. Your nasty approach is not welcome. I don't care how many books you have wrote or read. Totally unacceptable. Take your nasty ways elsewhere. Obviously, you don't know anything about this buckle. Why not just say "I don't know"? Is that "out of your realm" ?
I would rather have Rossi here than you to be honest. If you leave.."You will not be missed" Not by me anyway
An apology is due

This certainly took an unexpected turn for the worse. Kirk is a great man. And I hope things don't go the way they have in the past where we loose another valued member here, or two, or three!! I hope it's just a misunderstanding, and that cooler heads prevail. Knowledge is what is sought and often found here and in a gentlemanly manner. Nothing is gained when a member is lost. Kindest regards to all.

Kirk you will be missed, i've said from day one you are one of the good guys.
Maybe I used the wrong word, which I took from a dictionary.
So for this, I make excuses.
Just another short explanation:
A simple fact about the buckle. When this would be a pre-war buckle
from the mid 1930's don't you think it would have been in none of the
available cataloques or leaflets.
And I can assure you I do have many of them and from the best
manufacturers. This and some look-a-like buckles are not mentioned
by Assmann, Linden, Deumer, Steinhauer & Lück, Gloerfeld, Overhoff
or whatever. What more proof is needed here?
Kirk's reaction is childish. But that is my opinion. With various occasions
I tried to explain what is known for 30 years or more years. This type
and others is for the German police post-war.
FB and some others took a wise decision a while ago. I will join them.
Let's see how many questions will remain unanswered! Some give
comments here, not having any knowledge about true facts and for
sure not from regulations and period documentation, as catalogues.
Gents, enough is enough, behave like gents or thread is closed. I will not tolerate insults on the buckle section and I dont care who you are how long you have posted here or whatever you know. Behave like human beings, EVERYONE has the right to an opinion whether right or wrong. In fact thread closed

Good Morning Wim,
Maybe you used the wrong word? Why yes you certainly did? Absolutely no excuse for your insult and your response takes no responsibility what so ever. You can argue vintage all you want but I just am not in agreement and others don't agree as well. You have no written proof any more than the next guy on this buckle. Posture all you want and keep stumping.
I see my response was "childish" in your opinion. I won't allow you to get by with that crap. I would say you always getting ruffled when people don't agree with you is childish. You have little patience for adversity and no margin for others opinions. It is a shame your superior knowledge in some areas can not be tempered with some grace and humbleness at times. You are Not Omniscient Mr. Saris. I have played sub alpha long enough and it is about time someone called you out for your crass behavior.
You are beyond reproach and thus I bid you well. I hope some day you can drop your ego.
"Wir sollen auch unser Leben für die Brüder lassen" (1.Joh.3.16): Maybe you should live by it.
