Hello, both hewers look ok, but I am not too keen about the lader hangers.
Is there any additional etching (like eg 3/37) beneath the trademark?

Regards,

Hello, can you tell me what trademark exactly, I do not see any number.
I post some engraving on both hangers and more.

Hello,sorry for delay, this thread got out of my sight.
have meant the KREBS hewer. Sometimes (on very early ones) KREBS hewers had month and year etched beneath the trademark.
Leather and stitching of the leader hewer´s hangers do not conform to what is known from doubtless originals. Even when we are aware that especially RAD hangers (leader´s and later NCO´s and men´s) sometimes were made either from small cottage manufacturers these certain leader hangers shown here don´t also look lke these. Also the hardware (buckles, slides and clips) looks suspect to me.
Regards,

Hello,
