Guys,

What do you think? It is British webbing that the germans recyled? Really?

any more photos @Richard Auld? It looks like the correct diamond weave but more photos would help.  Cheers!

I was trying to snag some interest on this from you AK people, I have been offered a substancial amount of money for this roll of British webbing. No doubt it would be a number of original belts within the month. It was found with a lot of original German metal parts here in Bergen.  Don't worry I would burn it before I would take their dirty money!

So It did belong to Herman G......

I thought so, this belt must be much smaller than his waist size - at least 180cms as far as I know?
