Looking good !!!!

I am sure I saw a web one once... but I can't recall where ...

Was it Baugnez ??? I really can't remember...

Can you read what is written on the labels ??? I'm trying but cant succeed...

If it is ww2... I must admit I can't say for sure but it looks ok

That web pouch is very interesting indeed.

Just a shot in the dark here...but could be this be a post war Czech pouch modelled after a WH pouch???

It would be great to see what is under the paper label....I think this will answer a great many questions.

If it is a late war issue web pouch that will be 3 super rare pouches that we have seen in as many months here....First Patricks super rare web GGG pouch.. Second is Karels Brown leather GGG pouch & now this web pioneer tool pouch

All my drooling is going to short out my keyboard........

Are You sure that is WW1 ?
Not 1918-33 ? Weimar Republic...

Maby some more ? Why You think that, it will be very helpful

[antifake]

That´s a good idea, WW1 or Weimar. I have this leather engineer pouch from 1927, so why not earlier made from web ?

[corporalSteiner]

im not sure if 'web' is right here, as description. 'canvas' may be more accurate. the cloth is canvas, while straps are web, or webbing.
post in imperial thread for more info, perhaps.

If it's any help, I believe the writing under the label lists the contents, the last item being:
1 Schachtel Gummi...
the end of the word undecipherable for me!
Sorry to disappoint any members with a sweet tooth,but I am sure of 1 thing -
the 2nd word is NOT Gummibären!
Best,
Jon

1 Schachtel Gummi...

Might be "Gummiringe"... If so, the content doesn't match the standard content of WW II Werkzeugtasche fuer Sprengdienst (there isn't anything begining with "Gummi" at all in the standard content). All the pioneer manuals I have list the same content of the bag (the only difference is fuse crimper - Wuergezange - newer and older type).

Notice also that standard WW II Werkzeugtasche has 4 stiches (from loops) on the back side, while yours has 6.

Maybe it's earlier than WW II (Reichswehr - the canvas inside is greenish), or intended for use in coal mines - some of the companies (ex. Lignose Werke) producing standard "Sprengdienst" tools for use in military were also producing similar sets for use in coal mines , where you rather avoid using too much leather due to water, moisture and salt. But that's just my guess.
