Great looking bayo. Is the frog marked on the back?
If I'm reading the chart correctly the knot is for 2nd Battalion, 1st Battery (if flak) or 1st Company (if signals).

Thanks Raymond , sadly the frog has no markings , where did you manage to get a chart with the knots listed , i'd be VERY interested in obtaining one .

You can find them in original books and they have also been reprinted several times. Tom Johnson has a paperback book "Third Reich Edged Weapon Accouterments. Which is the one I used. Check his site www.johnsonreferencebooks.com . They originally were printed in small paperback booklets which had color drawings of many of the well know organizations. It's been condensed into one book recently, "Deutche Uniformen" by Sascha Weber www.militariafachbuch.de .

Thanks Raymond, funnily enough i found a german uniform book that has a section that briefly covers knots, cost me 50p
