Real or fake ?
Quote from tropen38 on April 2, 2020, 2:45 pmIt’s unbelievable how good these fakes are in my opinion. That’s probably the reason I sold all my militaria stuff that was not from friends or family in the first place. These fakes get to good for me. Thank all of you guys for helping me out and explain what makes it fake.
Additions like wire (and camo) have always been a sore point , the good wire camo’s are a rare breed. For the rest you can buy decalled helmets safely if you know your stuff.
I find these wire helmets so hard to judge - it really is a minefield with these.
For most of them i don't find the wire that attractive (sorry for those that have them). I would not pay extra for the wire at any rate.

I see, personal taste.
many have no attraction for them, but when they are untouched (see Neil's post) they are very cool to have ...1 or 2 pieces imo
