Hello all!
This pickelhaube doesn't have the typical spike base (removable to be replaced by a cap) of the M1900 East Asian pickelhaube nor the elongated spike ventilation holes of the previous model. More like a regular M1895 spike + base and yet the rest looks East Asian...
And does the stitching seem OK to you?
Also, what do you make of the wappen prongs and the way they pierce through the shell right under the factory slots?
Last but not least, can someone make out the stamp on the last photo to see if it's truly East Asian?
