Thank you Larry, I believe well kept. Passed the smell test and there is some corrosion on the rivets. Stitching looks good and feels pretty stiff. Came on a Bayo. Took a while to remove as I do not like keeping the scabbard in the frog.

I have a listing of 249 German leather and holster makers from 1900-1965,but of course it`s copyrighted,so can`t post it online....Pete.

Looks like a good unissued one. Franz Brehme, at Walsrode in lower Saxony is a known leather good maker during Third Reich and is in fact still in business. This has the typical mark used in 1942 before the R.B. numbers came in. They must have done large numbers of frogs in 1942 as this date is often found. This one has no strap retainer. Regulations changed in 1939 to discontinue making the strapless type, but was never fully achieved. Perhaps it was not issued due to lack of retainer strap?

Very interesting to see the S98/05 frog from 1941.

Thank you for the information and confirmation. This one will remain in the collection.
