Original German WWII Helmet Liner Split Pin Marked “KA 44"This is an original German WWII helmet liner split pin, marked “KA 44”—indicating 1944 production by Karl Askamp. This single pin includes its correct metal washer. The maker mark is partially faint and obscured due to age and surface corrosion.
The pin shows honest wartime wear with visible oxidation, rust, and age toning. The washer also displays rust and discoloration consistent with long-term storage. Traces of post war paint remain on the pin head. Despite the corrosion, both components remain structurally sound, though we recommend careful handling due to their age.
A solid, maker-marked split pin—ideal for completing or restoring a M42 German helmet.
Please note: This listing is for one split pin with washer.
