Welcome to Ken’s Bargain Basement

Here you will find cheap helmets.

Buy them. Get them out of my hair.

Bargain basement # 204

Here is Im know what you’re thinking. This helmet is really, really green. But the paint is original. Late war Hkp helmets often came with very green finishes with little or no grey pigment added. This one has not been toned down by patina so the color really stands out. It has one other fairly rare feature; a dome stamp. Hkp seldom used acceptance stamps in the domes of their late-war helmets but this example ended up with one. The liner is decent but the chinstrap is gone. ON HOLD

Bargain basement # 202

Here is a fairly rare helmet; as civil police helmets go. It is an example of the so-called “M34” civil style shell but it is of combat weight. Not stamped from the common “Blechstahl” that civil helmets are normally made of. It retains 90% paint and decals. The chinstrap has one break which can be seen in the photos. Size is marked as 56.  SOLD

Bargain basement # 199

This is an Si66 M16 helmet with a good deal of it’s original paint. And it shows very good color too. Of course the liner has suffered like the vast majority of liners do. But the helmet displays very well. $475.00

Bargain basement # 198

Bargain basement # 197

The Norwegian army kept almost everything that the Germans left behind in 1945; including a couple hundred thousand German helmets. They stripped them and rebuilt them for use by second line units. This is a good example. It is an ET64. with original German leather. The chinstrap is Norwegian produced. The Norwegian paint and decals rate at 98%  and the leather is still quite good. These helmets are actually a dying breed as they are constantly being sought out to be stripped and restored to Pre-1945 specs. Save this one by buying it and putting it on your shelf. $400.00ON HOLD

Bargain basement # 190

An outstandingly rare helmet. Certainly the rarest which has ever graced the “Bargain basement” page. This is the Krupp designed helmet produced at Berndorf for the Austrian army in 1918. They only made them for a year. They only made them in shell size 64. The helmet is distinctive for it’s unusual placement of the liner connection points being at direct right and left rather than forward as is the case with every other German or Austrian helmet. This example retains it’s original chinstrap, liner frame and attachment rivets; although it was painted over at some point with what I refer to as “commie green”. Perhaps used by an eastern bloc country such as Yugoslavia (which was for the most part a section of the former Austro-Hungarian empire). Of course, there is the “Berndorf bear” marking at the rear. The helmet took a whack which caused a dent/crack. It remains a fascinating helmet which is unique in all helmetdom. HOLD
