lach470 Posted July 26, 2008 Posted July 26, 2008 Getting harder and harder to find buckles I don't have....though there are still MANY that need to find their way into my collection! Here's my newest....a trouser style Stahlhelm buckle. I've always liked these buckles that show the steel helmet....Happy to have added this one to the collection. It's got a ding in the helmet and it's hard to see but there's a gold gilt to it. I like it! Here are some pics!Cheers!Rob
lach470 Posted July 27, 2008 Author Posted July 27, 2008 Here's a group shot of all my stahlhelm buckles....all different in one way or another. I love these and continue to look for more variants to add to the collection!Cheers gang!Rob

Ulsterman Posted July 31, 2008 Posted July 31, 2008 (edited) Nice:That one on the lower left is excellent! Bravo!! Edited July 31, 2008 by Ulsterman
lach470 Posted July 31, 2008 Author Posted July 31, 2008 Thanks! WOW- great picture! You don't see too many of the Stahlhelm....I often try to find pics of the buckles I have in wear....I havent' had much luck. Looks like the box buckles in wear in your picture are ww1 issued buckles....I think anyways. Thanks for the pic!Rob
herr Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 awesome collection Rob, but you knew that allready RegardsHerr
lach470 Posted August 10, 2008 Author Posted August 10, 2008 Thanks Herr! But I'm never satisfied! Still many buckles to acquire!!! heh heh heh!Rob
Paul R Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 I cannot believe the drastic differences in the variances. Did each unit have different uniforms and requirements?
lach470 Posted August 10, 2008 Author Posted August 10, 2008 Good question Paul....I'm thinking no - but I can't say for sure. There aren't a whole lot of pics of this org. The ones I've seen show a multitude of different uniform garb....but I don't know if that was to represent different units or not. Most of the pics I've seen as well, show the members with open claw buckles - I haven't seen many with these types of buckles in wear.....too bad....Cheers buddy!Rob
Scott Powell Posted August 10, 2008 Posted August 10, 2008 congrats on the new buckle! i am always impressed with your posts
