Russian WW1 Infantry Flat Shovel (Spaten)
















Original Imperial Russian WW1 Infantry Flat Shovel (Spaten)

The shovel blade had the original Russian Cyrillic markings removed by the Germans and we think a "H" on the blade is for Heer to be re-issued to German soldaten. No bluing on the blade and there are a good amount of nicks on the edge of the blade.The wooden handle is in very good condition, has a faint date "1911", someone initials and the normal nicks and has the "ball" at the bottom.
