Luft Buckle 2-Pieces / Parade Zinc Alloy?

[gebris353]

Hi gents, reading the forum I have developed a taste for Luft buckles in general and read about parade examples made of two pieces. Kept reading and learned that they are also made (or can be made too) of zinc alloy instead of aluminum and the four prongs should be made of steel... so the question would be: is the next buckle an example of this kind of parade buckles in the 2nd eagle version or I have leaned nothing so far? In any case are they rarer than the normal 1-piece aluminum or blue steel buckles? Cause haven't seen much on the forum, maybe I'm just not using the best words on the search engine tho. Thanks in advance!






Best regards,
Fabian.-

The two pieces buckles are private purchase buckles (bought by the soldier himself) whereas other one piece alu or iron buckles are military issues.

You do not see a lot of two pieces buckles on the forum as a lot of collectors do not collect them.
It is my case, I have more than 50 military buckles but no two pieces...

That's a great answer! Clarified a lot of things, thanks for the help Helmutderpa!
