Rare customized US Fighting knife ID’ed Charles Laurance Petrie O-490932, 1943 Camp white Oregon. Interesting feature in this customized knife is the grips which have been made from clear Perspex that was often found at crash sites.

Excellent and rare to find MG spare bolt box for the Lafette 42. The box is made out of steel and has a few bits of paint still left on it. This is the 3 type spare bolt box which could contain both the MG34 as the MG42 bolt but has only been observed in use on the Lafette 42. These boxes are rare to find in good condition without being messed with post war!

The tunic has the tailors label inside which reads: “Herren-bekleidung, Massanfertigung, Militär-effekten, Uniformen Eugen Stuckle, Ulm-Donau Hirchstr. 24.” the regiment was interestingly established in Ulm as well! A stunning tunic in very good condition!

Nice late war FF33 field phone with tan painted hardware on the bakelite housing. Typical configuration with a mix of black and tan painted hardware and 1943 dated telephone without simplified connectors, most likely early 1944 production.
