Rare early dark green webbing K98 bayonet frog in very good condition. This example features its original brown leather retaining strap which is a first for me, most likely some a transitional example! Very nice and interesting example in very good condition!

Nice set consisting out of a folding E-tool complete with its first pattern carrier manufactured out of Pressstoff. The set seems to be untouched but the top cover of the carrier has been resewn at some point. The carrier is nicely marked Sachs & Deisselberg, Hamburg 1940. Very nice set with a nice named first pattern carrier!

Messkits and canteens enameled in these colours are attributed to be made by the Deutsche Emailwarenfabrik (DEF) run by Oskar Schindler. Messkits and canteens, unmarked, in these specific colours have been found in the old factory storage of the former DEF.  There are several other makers of enameled steel canteens and messkits but they all carry different characteristic features such as markings or specific colours. No other maker utilizes these light gray and blue colours and lacks markings. The light blue “wash” on top of the enamel is one of the typical features. The messkit is in good used condition. A very nice and rare messkit!
