      Hi Tom, all this haul looks very nice.

      The top row are all Heer artillery, while the bottom row are all HJ.

      Cheers, Ade.

        Hard to tell from the picture, but the top middle could be panzer. Is the color pink or red? Nice haul! What maker mark is on the army dagger?

              Looks also like a ceramic ball and pull cord from a potatoe masher!

                  Doug,

                  The Heer Dagger has seen much better days. The hanger is gone, the scabbard bent (door slammer), handle cracked and the tip of the blade is bent. The maker is a less common one and it's a shame - all the fittings are the early silver type. It's more or less a parts piece now....

                    The gravity knife is great and also a "Shame". It has the vets name scratched into the handle along with "Belgium 1944". The bad part is the back spring snapped below the release. Other than that - it's in great shape.

                          You sure the top row isn't smoke troops Ade?

                            Hi Simon, as usual, red is one of those colours that proves tricky on a monitor, but if Tom can add a close up on these straps I am we will be able to make an accurate judgement. Reading Doug's comment and looking again the middle one might be pink?

                            Cheers, Ade.

                              Tom,

                              Very nice indeed!!

                              If you ever have a need to get rid of all those M36 straps, drop me a line.
