Looking for any information about this knot, I got it in Stuttgart a couple weeks ago, sold to me as some kind of forestry knot but I wasn't sure at the time.

Baz69, personally I donīt think this knot to be of the 3R period. I do know such additional looking stitching on the strap only from sabre portepees, on troddels those lines normally are woven in. Just my thoughts. Will be interested what Houston will tell us. Perhaps you are showing it in his forum?

Hi Wotan,
I don't think this is 3rd Reich either, more than likely it is Imperial, I had thought the colours would give away it's origin, possibly being a "Beamten"(Officials) knot of some kind.

I have seen a few of these before and they remain unidentified. The fact is that there are MANY types that remain unidentified. There is a possibility that it is Prison related. The colors are right but not the same design. We may never know on many of these.
