Down the Cellar 113 - Pregame Show

Not even the Super Bowl can stay this pair of intrepid unboxers from their appointed rounds.
BOILERPLA... ER, GENERAL INFO:
Tom, Deb, and Ob would like to thank everyone who have been kind enough to send in gifts. Seriously, you guys are just the best.
I'd like to thank each and every one of you who take the time to watch DtC, and am very grateful to everyone who takes even more time out of their day to comment. In a perfect world Tom or Ob would be able to engage with everyone in the comment section, but alas the world is far from perfect. Tom doesn't know how (and refuses to learn) and Ob is something of a Luddite.
FAQ & A:
Q: I have a burning question about something in the video! What should I do?!
A: An email sent directly to Tom is the best way to get your question answered, because while he most definitely reads each and every one of your comments, he hasn't quite gotten the hang of replying to them in the comment section, and is not likely to in the foreseeable future. Or ever. Seriously, he still calls KZbin "the U-TOOBZ".
Tom's personal email is: [e-mail]
You can also call him if you prefer (856-866-8733) between the hours of 9 AM and 4 PM, EST. This may be slightly more difficult because he's forever running around away from his desk, but it's worth a shot.
Q: I have an amusing anecdote, scathing criticism, or heartfelt compliment that I deeply need to express and I require / demand / long for a personalized response! What should I do?
A: See "A" above.
Again, Tom's email is: [e-mail]

REQUEST Can we see Arb's collection and what he is passionate about think it would be interesting for everyone.

Can't wait for the video from the S.O.S. show, it will be a first for me, as for the email sent to Mr. Wittmann, thanks for the example of the pot calling the kettle black, you sir need an education in humility, the D.T.C. crew bring us examples of history, my experience has been that if anything these men are pro-Allie force's and never claim to be Nazi's or followers of that type of hatred, but you Sir have certainly brought out your true color's in regard to being an example of what a P.O.S. is, thank you for your input, I am sure you will continue to send your opinion elsewhere and onto other good people who do not deserve your poisonous vitriol, thank you Mr. Wittmann Sr/Jr for another history lesson...

[@nolmanimates3031]

Had a good chuckle at the angry letter, another good video Wittman!

[@andywillard1410]

For the holsters I would get ahold of legacy collectibles based out of Philadelphia they deal almost exclusively in firearms and holsters like these

[@miscyoutuber]

And they would offer $3 each and then sell them for full retail. Wittmann will do just fine selling them on his website

[@jrnash5329]

That pin has the insignia of the 1st flotilla u boat of the kriegsmarine. Whether or not it's original who knows , really enjoy you guys & all the knowledge & experience which you share long live bob burns !!

[@TerryC69]

Hello Team Wittmann! First things first, Joe's SS dagger collection is damn enviable to say the least! I appreciate the time you fellas took to explain the details of the fake Christmas dagger hanger. Any tips that aid in authentication of pieces is gold to me.

[@larryburwell8550]

great daggers and blades. 2 nice helmets and a really nice shako!! thanks for sharing

[@mojesimore8054]

Braun holster is for artillery Luger, it is one with longest barrel. Marine Luger type has middle barrel length. Pocket on holster is for cleaning kit...

[@nicobas773]

Some do but I never get enough of the different daggers . Thx Tom 😊

[@herd118]

The artillery Luger holster is a modern reproduction.

[@darrinrentruc6614]

[@TheArizonan]

I sold a luftwaffe sports shirt once on offer up and got many emails like the one you received. People are just plain stupid. Just because you have it does not mean you support it. Its just history.

[@NickFortier]

Stockton, is not a nice place.

[@mikehelms3063]

Ok thanks will mail some tomorrow. Gr Mike

[@ianwatson5370]

Love watching these, always learn something, but can we somehow avoid banging and clanking thr bit together all the time? They cone so carefully packaged, and it seems once unpacked get banged together. But thank you for sharing!!

[@mikewinkelman7015]

Beautiful daggers, forget stupid email. Some people are hatters no matter what. Good video keep them coming .thank you.

[@aleksandrit-007]

Cool 😎

[@madaboutmilitaria3630]

That email😮definitely a blue haired gender neutral Biden voter.

[@rjb6327]

The compartment on the side of the Luger holster is a Cleaning Rod Compartment. Holster worth about $70 From what the internet has to say, the 1920s-1930s German Reichsmarine (Navy) Issue Blanket is rare and worth quite a few bucks. Divers dagger can be worth thousands. You have to frame that lovely letter. That person probably sent that email and then took a long ride in his Japanese car.

[@miscyoutuber]

repro holster $70, original is at least 3 times that

[@siroyal2040]

Hello thanks guys Another great video thank you Mr wittman just one question how come your got the same surname as the famous black Knight or m wittman Germanys panzer ace just a thought been watching your videos from the start leaning so much too I only have a small collecton saveing up for a ss dagger thank you from Simon in Potter Heigham Norfolk UK have a great day 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@OranjeBlanjeBlue]

This started as a monthly unboxing video with an occasional drink but has become a weekly drinking video with an occasional box…😢

[@mikehelms3063]

I would love to send a picture from my collection, does that have to be a hardcpoy picture or can I send it via email? Great video again by the way👏👏👏

[@WittmannAntiqueMilitaria]

You can email it to Tom and I’ll print a hardcopy. He insists on using photos instead of me just doing a cutaway, which is nuts but I can’t really argue with the boss.

[@Turbo89coupe]

Mr Wittmann was there any different daggers for the werewolf ss soldiers?

[@HAMP698]

Adverts on youtube are starting to get annoying. Id rather watch Mr Wittman

[@jakebeck4389]

Why were u sent that terrible email?

[@thilgu]

First!

[@davidcarter6715]

KC Chiefs

[@waynehatton4136]

This is predictably boring. Thousands of these blades were made. The shows are no longer good.

[@dannyk1351]

shut up

[@miscyoutuber]

but you playing the same video game over and over isn't boring? Or the same weed you smoke 25 times a day isn't boring? Go back to watching your silly anime videos then.....

[@michaeledwards7668]

So don't watch, it's that simple, nobody is forcing you to watch.

[@Tom-xm7iq]

Don’t know what your expectations are , ..! I thought this vid was excellent, extremely informative,, not predictable at all .. !

[@waynehatton4136]

To each his own. Daggers and blades are out there by the thousands, have been for a very long time, both war time and postwar made. They're flooded with them. The military shows now are pathetic.
