An excellent example of an early-war Luftwaffe fork , dated 1939 and produced by FBMT (Flieger-Besteck Metallwarenfabrik Torgau) .
This sturdy piece of tableware carries the Luftwaffe eagle with swastika on the handle, showing crisp details that highlight its authenticity.
Such forks were part of the official Luftwaffe mess equipment, used by personnel in canteens and officer's messes. The clear “FBMT 1939” maker's mark makes this a highly desirable item, as many Luftwaffe utensils were left unmarked.
