It appears to be a nice original Paul Weyersberg take down model. Has just enough wear to say it's been there.
Nice that it has what appears to be the original lanyard with it as well. You can't change the condition it is in so just keep it dry and it should stay like this forever.
Congrats!

What a find with history no less.

Very nice and love the lanyard.
But I would REALLY like to see that helmet

Well, if in good condition, a legit camo w/wire M38 with true vet provenance would go for much much more than $6k.
Do you know this Vet?

Yes, I know these helmets can be very pricey. I would have paid up for it just for the history to go with it.
The man is an acquaintance of my father. I traveled 10 hours to visit my father and meet this guy.

Nice. Just wanted to make sure it wasn't the old "Vet" came into a show scenario.
But I feel this guy might have been taken on the helmet....while he would not have gotten dealer prices, if in good condition, these are a holy grail type of M38 helmets people dream of....IMHO of course.

I understand. This guy is legit. My father has known him for years. We talked all day today, he showed me pictures of himself and his friends during the war. He told me some stories and explained things about the war to me.
I just recapped today's conversation with my father and he reminded me that he sold his personal helmet 10 or more years ago but sold several other helmets about four months ago.
Being 94 years old he was trying to sell items. He had loads of collectibles but his prices were very high. He has all of his faculties and is sharp as a tack. I don't think anyone was taking advantage of him so the 6K for the helmet may have been closer to fair when he sold it years ago.

whew...I just hate to see people being taken. I don't know what prices for these 10 years ago were but I guess it was a lot lower so good news.
If you can, write down as much as he is willing to tell you and keep it with the knife. The stories unfortunately are lost to time.
