Bill & Norm,
I thought the same, but wanted confirmation from someone more knowledgeable than myself, appreciate that.

Stay safe

I have brown holster dated 1939 with a tool. It is marked Carl Ackva Bad Kruznach over an eagle spread wings WaA286. The tool has a an eagle over perhaps #63.

Is this your average WWll or a rarity. Thanks.

I don't know the maker, is it in the listing here on the forum?

Carl Ackva from Bad Kruznach is considered one of the better makers whose work usually commands a slightly higher premium than normal.

Just got this one back from Jerry after some repair/restitching. (Thanks Jerry!)Herman Flohr, Coln. date is hard to make out, but probably 1917. Not sure of the significance of the ink stamp inside the lid.
