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.

Army enlisted man belt in genuine leather, dated 1982. Will fit up to 44" waist,
easily adjustable to smaller sizes. This "Deluxe" model was issued to EM and NCOs
serving in elite "showcase" units or deployed abroad in Warsaw Pact countries such
as East Germany. Far scarcer than the standard issue Soviet EM / NCO belts in
cheap ersatz leather. In very good condition.

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.
