Entrenching tool head by Yates & Co, Birmingham, offered without its handle or helve.<\/p>\n

A compact military collectable with interest for collectors of field equipment and vintage tools. This listing is for the head only.<\/p>\n

Entrenching tools<\/p>\n

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\u2019s marks and connection with military field equipment.<\/p>\n
