Entrenching Tool Carrier ID - WWI / Reichswehr

**meyle77** · 01-15-2013, 08:02 PM

Hi,

In my quest for more field gear, I found this entrenching tool carrier.
From my research it appears to be German WWI or Reichswehr issue used in WWII as well.

Any feedback is appreciated.

Thanks !

Unfortunately, I dont have it and the seller has only one photo available at the moment.
It is priced really low so I just might get it.

I also found that the same type was used by Finland and it is possible that it could be of Russian origin.
Any ideas ?

ok, so it is a Finnish issue carrier, but is it Finnish made or reissue from foreign stock ?

ok, so I got the item and paid $25 for it shipped :-)
Here are 2 photo - still looking for definite id.
There is no markings on it other than "T" and part of a square type mark.
Front part had light coat of black paint applied.

Thanks !
