A very nice MP 38 u. 40 magazine speed loader tool. Perfect to fill up the small pocket on the left sides pouch or just for general display. The tool is nicely marked 98E 41 which indicates production by Steyr-Daimler-Puch AG,Werk Steyr (A) in 1941. 

Nice short strap which was intended to attach the gasmask canister to the belt. Typical early/pre war example with 3 holes so the strap is adjustable in size and aluminium hardware.

German helmet chinstrap marked ftb44 in excellent condition.

Rare pre war Czech M34 helmet that was reissued in the Luftschutz. The helmet is in very good condition with over 85% paint and decal. . The helmet has its single Luftschutz decal applied to the side in mint condition. These helmets are very rare, especially a blue one in good condition!

Excellent Heer M35 double decal field repainted battle damaged helmet. The helmet is marked Q66 indicating production by Quist. The helmet retains its factory installed liner and early chinstrap. The helmet retains both of its original decals, with the eagle decal denazified. The helmet retains a typical bullet damage to the back of the shell, just right of the rivet. The bullet or shrapnel penetrated the helmet and stopped at the liner band. This probably resulted in a minor injury for the wearer. The helmet was probably kept after the war as a good luck charm. The helmet retains a nice period field repaint masking both decals. The helmet is a beautiful battle damaged example in very good condition!

Textbook SA Dagger marked RZM M7/12, Waffenfabrik Max Weyersberg, Solingen. The dagger is in very good, unsharpened condition with clear markings. The scabbard is undented and still retains up to 90% of its original factory finish. Excellent example!

The production of this third pattern started post May 1944. The compass is in good used condition and has a very nice brownish coloured bakelite housing. The last pictures shows a comparison between a normal black and this brown example! Nice and rare late war “A” marked compass!

Excellent Iron Cross second class marked 128 indicating production Jablonski, Posen.

Excellent single decal M35 helmet in two-tone camouflage pattern marked SE64 indicating production by Sachsichse Emaillierwerke Fulda. The helmet retains its factory installed liner. The liner pins are void of paint externally, but behind the fronts the camouflage paint remains, inside the pins look exactly how they should. The liner is named H. Beyer N1341/40E – the latter number indicates he was enlisted in the Kriegsmarine serving on the North Sea. There is a decal underneath the camouflage paint, but it looks to be a Heer example. There are numerous examples of Heer helmets found in Kriegsmarine use and this is a excellent example.
