German helmet

In good used condition brown K98 carrying sling. The leather is in good supple and flexible condition and has no cracks or tears. The frog is nicely marked with the typical pre war waffenamt and features an early brass pip, this indicates early production probably around 1936/37. It looks like the small leather loop has been repaired at some point. Interesting early leather K98 sling perfect to complete a K98.

Stunning SA dagger marked Carl Wüsthof Solingen. The dagger is a early numbered exampled with matching serials R84/ 18435. The blade is in great, unsharpened condition marked Alles für Deutschland. The scabbard is a in good condition and is a typical example for this maker. The ring is factory welded to the scabbard. The tip of the scabbard is slightly dented. Normally these early Carl Wüsthof made examples have a anodized finish which sometimes wore down very fast. This factory finish, at some point, was painted over which is typical for these daggers. The paint however does show age and crazing. The grip is in good condition with original insignia embedded firmly but with a few chips in the wood. Excellent SA dagger in great condition, hard to upgrade for sure!

A nice original Reibert manual. These manuals where private issue in the 1940’s and are very thorough and they talk over every single aspect the German soldier was taught in.

They where brought out in different versions, this one being the variant for the Der Dienstunterricht in der Luftwaffe or simply riflemen. The manual seems to have all pages and is in very good condition.

Outstanding brown bakelite cup to complete a canteen or a display!
