I am 56 and just bought my first American helmet thanks to the 101 video you made. That gave me enough courage to invest in the hobby. I will email some photos of the helmet soon. I hope you make a 101 video on visor caps, since I also bought one of those to have next to the helmet. thank you for the good information and for advising people to leave paint and decals alone. Big win there.

this is a funny hobby/obsession/study of and preservation of history. My father bought me my first German helmet when i was 12 or so. I still have it and I am 56 now. I had a number of helmets which I sold at 17...and regretted it. Rewind to a few years ago and the bug bit hard and now I have a modest collection of German helmets from WW1, WW2 and West German M40/53 both textured and not. A vintage Bulgarian WW2 M36B thrown in and Spanish etc. I have managed to obtain the correct belt buckle for each one. I love the study of history (I have a degree in it) particularly the machinations of 'modern Europe' in the 20 century. Owning a piece of history (albeit brief in the grand scheme of things) is wonderful and very rewarding and hopefully it helps us to remember not to repeat the mistakes and evil deeds of the past. Stay well everybody.

Thanks for the great video. I've recently started collecting helmets recently (mostly ComBloc) and have discovered another variation that I'm sure you have seen. These would be the Finnish M40 and later updated M40/55. These were supposedly either made by the Germans for Finland, or made on German machinery that was sold to the Finns. I have several of these that I bought from IMA. They are selling them for around $50 and I am very happy with mine. And no I will not be refurbishing them with German paint and decals- they are already historical in that they saw combat during the Winter War and the Continuation War. Keep up with the great videos and the corny jokes (I always get a laugh from your vids!).

Nice! Thanks - yea I should have mentioned the Finnish ones, as I see many of those being "mocked up" and sold as WWII German....

your transitional stahlhelm is actually an austrian m16 helmet. you can tell by the placement of the chinstrap rivet further up on the skirt. actually have seen quite a few autrian transitionals so i wonder if they adopted a large stock of them after the anschluss or maybe theyre from austrian personal drafted into the wehrmacht.
@militarycollectiblesshop11 ай бұрын
Thanks- you know as I was doing it I saw that that rivet and thought ("oh crap...") I do have a M18 DD somewhere...

Didn’t the Chinese army have genuine German helmets too? M35 if memory serves. Surely there should be thousands of those available as surplus?
@militarycollectiblesshop3 ай бұрын
They did have these helmet in smaller numbers- but they were used by the Nationalist Chinese- (who were driven from power) so these helmets are in fact quite rare and highly sought after by collectors.
