Cavalry Shashka sword, dated 1945. Issued to officers and enlisted men
alike, this is the so-called "Victory Parade" model (even though it could
well have served its owner in the battle for Berlin or the summer 1945 blitzkrieg
against Japan). A superb example with perfectly preserved blade and very
little wear to the lacquer of the scabbard. Comes complete with a 1942-dated
harness and leather tassel.
M 1940 Waist Belt with Hangers for Navy Officer Dagger, 1940-
1947. Early, narrower pattern, featuring so-called "kind
lions" on the buckles and without the larger round buckle
up front. In excellent condition. Fits up to a 42" waist.
This rare and desirable WW2 model is a perfect accompaniment
for a wartime-dated or a very early post-war Soviet dagger.
M1945 Army General's Belt in gold bullion brocade for wear
with the dress uniform, complete with dagger hangers, dated
1947. Extremely well-made and impressive piece, better than
the general dress belt of later years. In very good condition.
This can be a beautiful addition to a Soviet Army or Air Force
dagger or to an M45 General's "Victory Parade" uniform.
M 1949 Leather Belt with Hangers for Air Force Officer Dagger, dated 1949.
This type was manufactured only until 1952, at which point it was replaced by a much
cheaper to produce belt in braided brown cotton. This belt is of very early Soviet
manufacture, as opposed to some other belts of this type that were made in Soviet-
occupied Germany as part of war reparations. Extremely scarce piece in excellent
condition, complete with all of its brass hardware.
Army / Air Force officer full dress belt with dagger hangers, dated 1982.
Unusually large size, will fit up to XXXL (50") waist, adjustable to almost
any smaller size. Excellent condition. This type of belt was used very sparingly
after the 1958 change in uniform regulations and is much less common than the
similar naval officer belt.
