    Kriegsmarine bosun whistle Pfeife original

    Excellent example of an original untouched KM type bosun whistle!
    unmarked = as most of all originals observed
    heavy-duty ring = correct type
    drip of solder = excactly as you though, done to tune the pipe (this practice is described as a recommandation in the Pfeife manual)

      Many thanks for the clarification on the solder.

      Indeed, this pipe is so "untouched" that I think the fingerprint visible on the right side is actually my grandfather's!

              And another one. This seems to be the standard model, but with a different "Eagle&M" stamp.
              It has the name Husselstein (?) scratched into it.
              It has a nice age to it, and the stamp certainly doesn't appear fresh.
