Hi Tony,

Looks like a nice collection of lanyards, but the KM Schützenshnur is put together after the war from separate components, in my opinion.

Firstly it has 17 knots instead of the usual 14 -- rare in wartime but common in Bundesmarine. Secondly, the excessive black thread tying on the acorn looks atypical. And finally, a level 4 lanyard should combine the gold shield with a gold acorn, not a black Level 1 acorn.

More on the KM lanyard in the reference thread here: http://dev.wehrmacht-awards.com/foru...=367603&page=7
