M42 Stahlhelm

the whole helmet looks to be fake the rolled edge finish to the shell looks very poor quality & the corners where the skirt goes into the peek looks very sharp & not the smooth rounded finish ive seen on originals ??

The whole thing is a complete fabrication.

Sorry to hear you got stung mate! I'm sure this isn't the last helmet you buy, I hope you get a nice original helmet someday soon!

Good luck in the future!
