Entrenching tool head by Yates & Co, Birmingham, offered without its handle or helve.
A compact military collectable with interest for collectors of field equipment and vintage tools. This listing is for the head only.
Entrenching tools
Entrenching tools formed part of the equipment carried by infantrymen during the First World War. The British 1908-pattern design used a separate head and wooden helve, allowing the components to be carried apart. Surviving heads are collected for their design, maker’s marks and connection with military field equipment.
