Militaria Plaza

This is a nice original late war Wehrmacht (Heer) Shovel/Entrenching Tool with Carrying Case (Spaten mit Spatentasche). The entrenching tool was a basic item issued to all EM/NCO’s and was issued with a specific carrying case that was to be worn on the belt. The mint condition carrying case is made of a 'Ersatz' Vinyl material having two leather loops and could be worn on the load carrying waist belt. The carrying case is not visible maker marked or dated. The shovel is nicely maker marked and dated 1944, the shovel has unfortunately been repainted. Hard to find original entrenching tool in very good condition!
