Textbook original reissue helmet in good used condition. The helmet was repainted and fitted with a new liner during the war. Nice and typical example!

Scarce and superb original Luftwaffe issue survival machete complete with its impossible to find green tropical frog. Nicely maker marked Alcoso Solingen. These where issued with the bigger planes together with a survival kit containing flares, rations and other items. The Machete is in near mint condition complete with its original frog, a superb set that would be impossible to upgrade!

Nice set of Heer officers collar tabs in good used and uniform removed condition. Nice set with loads of character!

A nice original P08 Luger takedown tool in good condition. Hard to find spare and nice to complete your holster with. Nicely marked WaA!

Rare unissued Heer helmet decal in mint condition. This decal was never applied to a helmet and is nicely marked Huber Jordan u. Koerner Nürnberg-O Abzichbilderfabrik. Nice piece that would nicely display in a helmet collection!

Nice early bayonet frog in good used condition.

Rare original Pressstoff short wire cutter pouch marked E. Leuner Bautzen 1942. Textbook example executed in black Pressstoff.

Rare original K98 pouches made in France under the German occupation. The pouches are maker marked and dated Lemercier Aviation 1943. Slightly mismatched but a very nice maker matching pair!

Rare first pattern(!) Dutch M1917 Stormdolk in very good condition. The dagger comes with its very rare first model scabbard that was made without the leather securing strap around the handle. This strap was intended to keep the dagger from slipping out of the scabbard when not in use. This strap was later added to most if not all of the first pattern scabbards but this one seems to have missed that mandatory modification. The Scabbard is in very good condition without any modifications or repairs and is nicely marked CW indicating production by the Centrale Werkplaats. The dagger itself is in very good condition with most of its original blueing remaining to the blade. The handle is nicely marked and retains a nice patina. The dagger is numbered 1901 B and is original to the scabbard – looking at early M17 daggers it seems that the scabbards where not numbered. The dagger was recently found in the vicinity of Tilburg, the Netherlands. A very nice first pattern M1917 Stormdolk in very good condition that would be very hard to upgrade – for sure the best one I’ve had the pleasure to offer!

A textbook Heer M40 single decal helmet marked EF66 indicating production by Emaillierwerke Fulda. The helmet is complete with its original factory fitted liner and a original chinstrap. The chinstrap is full length, supple and unreadable marked. The helmet retains up to 85% of its original factory paint and 90% of its decal. All in all a very nice helmet in good condition.

A very nice late war blue belt buckle or Einheitskoppelschloss in stone mint condition still wrapped in its factory wrapping. The belt buckle still retains 100% of it’s original factory paint! A very nice Heer belt buckle that would be impossible to upgrade!

Mint unissued Heer breadbag with matching strap marked RKS42. Hard to upgrade!

The buckle is nicely maker marked with RZM M4/72 indicating production by the company Wilhelm Deumer, Lüdenscheid. The buckle is a nice injection molded example in very good condition.

Rare original yellow colored Luftwaffe night navigation map of the United Kingdom and Germany. These maps where used during the battle of Britain to the remainder of the war. Rare piece that would nicely attribute any Luftwaffe collection!

Nice original Luftwaffe officers collar tab for a Leutnant.
