    Need help with this shovel.

    Hey Guys,
    This buy came up on a whim today and at first glance I thought it was German. I do know it's WWII as the dates are marked on both the shovel and the cover. I'm not by any means a German Field Gear Expert (or any field gear guru except for American Gear) so I'd like to get this ID'd before sending to the Estand. Thoughts? I think it's German, but I'm just not sure.

        The cover is definitely Swiss (google Guggisberg). Not sure about the shovel as I can't get to my references and shovels right now, but I suspect it to be Swiss also.

              Nice Swiss matching set, but not the same $$$ as a German set by far.

                So it's not the same as a german shovel, but what's a good asking price for this? I haven't been able to find much on it really. If it's not that good, I could just keep it with my jeep once that's restored, but I could also use the money as well

                  No idea as to price, but in my experience I've rarely seen WW2 Swiss items sell very quickly even at low prices. You could give it a try on the e-stand and lower your price until it sells, or just keep it for personal use.
