In the native tongue, that’s “Do you sew?” and anyone with this nifty German Army field sewing repair kit would have rightly answered “ja.” The olive drab fold-over pouch came straight from some German military warehouse to ours, and contains metal scissors, several kinds/colors of thread, assorted buttons, (5) sewing needles of various sizes, a metal thimble and safety pins. Pouch measures 4-1/2" x 3" x 2-3/4" when closed and 6” when flapped open and flat. Canvas tie keeps it snugly closed.SHARE
Call it a MASK unit.

Pouch will be OD, Black or Coyote; we'll spin the wheel of fate to decide. And remember: reenacting actual combat surgery without a license is still not allowed.

We’re sure the Italian Air Force drinks vino only when they’re grounded, but those folks know how to live la vida dolce, capish? This glass carafe, in new condition, is etched with the Italian Air Force eagle symbol. Stands 9-1/2” tall with a 4-1/2” wide belly and a slender 3” tall neck. Holds a full liter. Made in France, where they know a thing or two about wine, too. Serve any kind of drink in it, though. It’s all about the sweet logo—and the story. Oh, should we serve it in my Italian Air Force carafe?

No, don’t really go climb a glacier—at least not with these crampons from the French Alpine Legion. They worked great back in the day, when French soldiers used them to scale steep mountains during snow and ice storms in the French Alps. But anymore they’re just for show, or maybe some light-duty walking. You’ll get a pair of them, adjustable from size 7 to 12, made of molded metal—in France, of course.

Or peg o’ our tent, or something. Our each is a set of (6) aluminum pegs, 10" long x 1/2" OD x 3/8" ID cut at 30 degrees at the bottom for driving-into-the-ground efficiency, and drilled at the top to take 50 feet of 1/16” dia white nylon polyester rope (included). We’re pretty sure this was all used to stake something down, we just don’t know what. Whaddya got?

This is a hell of a collectable piece here, a M-59 4X Yugoslavian/Serbian army monocular that’s great for any military or optics collection. If you collect military optics—double jackpot!

Unit is army-green steel and measures 7” long x 4" wide. Made my Zrak Optics. Comes with the original brown leather half-pipe storage/carrying case, which is 7” tall and 5-1/4” wide and 4” deep. Stamped with letters and numbers on top, and might have a lens cleaning cloth inside. Case also has an adjustable leather strap and a sturdy front buckle.

From the mid-20th-century German military, this is a fully functional field phone. Weighs in at 8.2 lbs, and comes self-contained in a 10-1/4" x 6-3/4" x 4-1/4" dark brown Bakelite case with a handset on a 4-foot cord, a 52” 2-pin jumper, 25” TT plug cord, ringer crank and a battery holder for the battery you’ll need to add. Should work with standard stereo speaker wire, and we’d get a pair of these phones if we were you. Small quantity available. These are surplus and have wear and tear on them. We will pick the nicest of the lot.

This leather German police strap with punched holes, quality stitching and a metal buckle looks like a belt for a very small person. Or maybe a stylish, tan collar for a very large dog. When we looked up “leather strap” in the original Deutsch, thinking this thing couldn’t possibly be for a waist or neck, we got “Lederarmband,” which means “leather bracelet.” Anyone who can wear this 22-24” long x 3/8” wide (all sizes are approximate, and vary piece to piece) strap around their wrist—or even their arm—is someone we don’t want to mess with. Same goes for that dog.

Whether you’re a military collector or you just like to look over cubicles and around corners, this 15" long x 1-13/16" Hungarian-made military periscope will make your day. Used, and in good condition, it has markings of “42 3-00360” and “1953”on it. It’s rare that we get stuff with a date marked on it. Input is 1-1/8" and output lens 1-5/8". Some lenses might need to be wiped, but like you, they clean up nicely. This scope doesn’t magnify much, if at all, but it gives a nice clear image of whatever you’re spying on.
