Is This Wehrmacht Water Bottle / Flask Original Or Fake/Repro?

[OddRomanian]

Hello, I was wondering if this WW2 german water bottle/flask is original or a fake reproduction. Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Definitely an original feldflasche in well worn condition. It appears to be larger than standard issue.

[OddRomanian]

Okay, thank you. Is the feldflasche from ww2? Does It have any waffenamt stamps? Is It missing something?
I'm sorry for the questions. I don't know amything about these.

Judging by the extended neck and overall size of the flask, it appears to be a Luftwaffe flight survival canteen. These were originally fitted with a collar and wire handle, with wood grip. They were painted yellow for benzin (for fires and emergency signals), or left bare (as here) for water.
The cover is either from a medical or tropical canteen, distinctive by its reinforcing ring.

[OddRomanian]

Ok, thank you. Did they make luftwaffe canteen with tropical/medic covers during the war or is this one a luftwaffe canteen that at one point someone added the cover? I'm sorry for the ignorance.

[Kohima]

Yes, the cover is from a standard medical/tropical type bottle, whereas the survival canteen was never fitted with a cover, so is a clumsy addition (clearly far too small).

[OddRomanian]

Ok, thank you. Is It safe to drink out of these canteens? Were the survival luftwaffe canteens fitted with a cup like normal german canteens? And how much is It worth? Thank you and I'm sorry for being annoying.

[Kohima]

No cup, just exactly as seen in the image I posted.
So long as it is clean enough, there should be no problem with drinking from it...

As far as value is concerned, that is not what we do here; we will happily evaluate an item for authenticity, but we do not give valuations.

OK, thank you a lot!
