Pattern 1908 Webbing WW1 Wire Cutter CARRIER Patt 08 FROG, CUTTER, WIRE, FOLDING

Description

GENUINE Pattern 1908 webbing equipment WIRE CUTTER CARRIER or Frog or more correctly in military nomenclature  'Frog, cutter, wire, folding'
This is the RARE part to complete your Pattern 08 webbing combat set
If you wanted the wire cutters? they are easily found and WEIGH A LOT, so better to find a set locally because you do not want to pay the cost of another 1 Kilogram on the Air Mail postage from New Zealand 25,000 Kilometers away
This superb piece of equipment served the NZDF for 70 odd YEARS
The maker details are THERE and no doubt there is a DATE also that MOST PROBABLY reads as "MECo Ltd 1917"
....As every other that I have seen here in New Zealand was so-marked.....you could possibly confirm this marking with a "Black Light"?
SCARCE enough to have generated many REPRODUCTIONS
You can usually tell the REPRO's by the Dome-Top (or "Snap") having a "pebbled effect" as seen on this GUARANTEED 100% GENUINE example shows :-)
IMAGES ARE my actual CONDITION DESCRIPTION
So if I have failed to show anything clearly ?
Please ASK QUESTIONS (well-prior to auction end) for clarification or ADDITIONAL IMAGES :-)
Do please VIEW my ***23 + years *** FEEDBACK selling history on E-Bay !!
Any questions please
