As far as value/pricing goes, I haven't seen any significant difference between WW1 and WW2 versions... Around $125 is about average for such an unmarked set-up, in my opinion...

Thanks, asking price is $ 75 so for only the price it is a good dealby GlennAgain
Hello,
Neither carrier nor shovel are WWII german military. Postwar is my guess for the carrier. For the shovel, more photos are needed.
Thanks

Wauw, what a big amount. Nice website. Thankyou. I will have a look if i can find "mine"
If i search it looks the most like this one.
Which if it is that one makes it : M195x Feldspaten Deutsche Demokratische Republik DDR GDR 950g 33.5oz. BAT Fledermaus 1 38-369-0106 K3 55cm 21.7in. ( if i am correct )
Hi Pierre, I was able to find limited info on the post WW2 BAT company, but unfortunately no details about the Feldspatten production except photos of the rivets & the welded models with the BAT logo. With the fall of the Wall many documents & information vanished for ever.
See link for (a bit) more info: NVA entrenching tools.
Your shovel is painted & rusted, without stamping seen it's very hard to identify. So many models look alike, it's all about details, details.

Thank you again. Seller says no visible markings are seen ( maybe like you say new painting and markings covered or never had markings ) and indeed i noticed that many look similar
It's a NVA set. So far very cheap and unpopular at the collectors market...
The manufacturer was marked by a gone sticker on the blade.
