You would have one with an original wrist strap!
. Do you have the other version with the steel block?
Here,s some of me stuff, the regular e-tool has the handle 'whittled' to fit perfect in the hand for combat and has a knife edge. The long shovel is marked ST.BTL.7 and has the rare board double loop strap.

Wow! Awesome stuff Eric. I love that long shovel carrier! I have an Ersatz example (canvas and leather). but the all leather version has eluded me. Not that anything else in that photo is shabby! Nice photo too.

The book STORMTROOPS have a fantastic selection of original specimens of this trench clubs in it's weapon section. The book is about the AstroHungarian shock troops, but the weapons looks almost if not the same as those pictured here.Comment

Thanks guy,s for the kind comments
Here,s some more of my stuff.
The M15 long handle cutters still have the handle covers (usually missing). The M11 jobs have the scarce belt clip.
William the 98A or 98Ka is a matching #,d 1915 Erfurt, the sling is postwar. They use to be ok to find at gun shows etc, but like everything else getting harder to find in unbutchered condition.

This Pionierspatenleder just sold on the internet.
No dates or stamps I can make out. Is it WW1 or post war?
