It seems the more I study the more questions I have. In my search for a Simson tool I came across these and am not sure of their authenticity, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Does not look authentic to me.

Once, when I was in a long search for a replacement grip screw for my Simson Luger, a well known Luger seller offered to fabricate an E/6 screw for me... Not amused.

Compare your tool to this mark of a Simson Luger. In particular, the eagle's head is not a triangle.

Absolutely fake. No question. Where did you see these?

I got them at a show the story was good the buyer was a fool.
Well at least I can help others know what not to look for, that's worth something.
So I guess I am still looking for a Simson tool, in case anybody has one that's looking for a new home.
Does anyone have pics of any original Simson tools, variations etc.

Thanks to all

We have pictures of simson tools in Simson Lugers and in Police Lugers

what it says in Police Lugers
Quote:

Simson Police Tool
Simson and Company made tools of one shape throughout its production period. It is marked with the E/6
Waffenamt inspector’s mark. The tool is in the white, of the same dimensions as the Imperial tools but broader
at the screwdriver shaft. Police unit marks were placed on the front or back.
and the 2nd tool is a nazi police tool

So neither tool is authentic ?

neither one looks good to me. Give away is swastika area is an x. Probably the die originated out of Poland. Just sold a good Simson tool to a collector friend. John

Simson and Police tools are unblued, have other shapes and the acceptance marks are not correct

Klaus, you are a treasure!

Wow, thank you so much for your guidance, it doesn't get much better than this. Exactly what I needed.
