    SS Steel Buckle Real or Not-Gift Horse

    A couple of years ago in Germany, a then friend gave me what he said was his grandfather's buckle--the name was Weller. I met the old guy, but my German is pretty terrible. Now, the question, I have seen some of the East German fakes, and I am wondering, despite this one being a gift, is there a problem with it. Some folks I showed it to have said it is good, others a fake...needless to say I resisted it knowing where it came from (but again, I value stories as much as a doughnut at Krispy Kreme, thoughts?)

    front of same buckle

    The one thing to me is I never liked the rust (but again never question a gift horse)

      Hallo,

      I don't know the reason of your friend's fanciful story , anyway it's not true :

      your buckle is a well known fake made in East Europe

        Thanks

        Much appreciated, that is why I have been frustrated, my gutt told me one thing, but can not understand why or how on this one. I just never want to pass one on that I am not 100% certain about.

          Well, Glenn was pretty much a BS story teller on most fronts, so why not this one :o)
