    German Shovel?

    Hi Guys,

    I few months ago I bought this shovel and the guy told me that this was a orginal shovel.
    It looks good to me but what are you thinking?
    Is this a Postwar Dutch shovel or a Swedish?

    Greetings, jeroen.

    I would guess it´s a postwar Dutch.
    How broad is the blade (in cm)?

    The Swedish army have never used shovels like this, but the Norwegian army did use the German shovels after the war.

        Jep, looks like a Dutch one. I got 2 of them that i still use.
        I'm collecting anything related to the towns Castricum and Bakkum during WWII.
        Also soldbucher from 116pzdiv. And 1944-1945 eastfront pockets, kampfgruppe and Oder front.

              Look here: http://atthefront.com/g_gear_etools.htm
              And scroll down.
              Great pictures that show what the differences are.
