belt buckles


Here is a selection of militaria from this category:

[ Show all ]
militaria item Czech Army buckle
- Czechoslovakia
This is the first pattern army buckle of the Czech Army, based on the structure of the old Imperial Russian design. Later it was replaced by an Austrian style design die struck in brass or steel. There are traces of an EPNS finish to both sides, with evidence of long sustained use.

militaria item German army issue combat belt, aluminium buckle
- German
This is the first pattern Heer aluminium issue waist buckle, stamped 'FLL' near the catch (for Friedrich Linden Co of Ludenscheid). The leather tag is faintly stamped 1938. These belts were worn in all the early campaigns: Poland 1939, France 1940 and in the beginning of the Russian campaign of 1941.

militaria item Stormtroop belt buckle
- German
This is a typical Sturmabteilung buckle of two-piece construction with a gilding metal centre and a brass field and would originally have been worn on a brown leather belt. The Stormtroops were the fighting arm of the Nazi party when it came to disputing control of the streets with the Reds.

militaria item Caucasian silver niello belt fittings
- Russian
These are typical niello belt fittings for a shashqua or kindjhal. About half the fittings are hallmarked 84 and with a Russian town mark and one piece is dated 1863. These were worn typically by Cossack elements, but also sometimes by Russian women.

militaria item Kriegsmarine belt buckle
- German
This is the mid-war version, which replaced the gilt aluminium / gilt steel / brass type of the pre-war and early war years. It is virtually mint, with a little rust at the goal post catch on the reverse. Otherwise there is hardly any paint missing from the piece, one of the best examples I have come across. There is no maker mark.
