    Hi all,
    There is a folding shovel on Ebay in Germany at the moment - the item No is 370366581482 and I'm well confused as to whether it's the real McCoy and I wanted your opinions.
    It has a waffenant and a 1943 date stamp but it looks to be a Dutchie from the stop not being angled like a German one should be & theres also a strange discolouring where the stamping is, like someone has heated it???

    Like to hear what the experts think?
    Cheers from Oz!

    I,m not an expert but you can clearly see that this shovel has been messed with.

    Yes Martin, something did not look right ........
    so I bought this one instead. A bit of a roughy but at least it's genuine. You can see the angled front edge to allow the blade to not sit against the handle when folded ( and so away from the soldat's leg )

    Cheers, Dan
