Wirecutters were a very basic and necessary tool to the soldier.  Yet, you rarely find German wire cutters available for sale.  This pair is in nice condition except for a missing ring on the handle and a tear in the pressed paper holster.  It's amazing that the holster survived at all.  There is a metal reenforcement in the toe.  The holster was made by Wilhelm Stern Lederwarenfabrik KG., a well know pistol holster maker.  The cutters are 15" long.  $450
