This is a multi-purpose pack issued to army personnel in the 1950's and 1960's. The pack is of rectangular shape. The main cover
is secured shut by two leather tabs that hook onto metal studs.
The back of the body has two small belt loop leather straps sewn in place.
The edge weapons from many countries are currently being
reproduced.
It is becoming more difficult to be able to tell the fake ones from the real ones because
the quality of the reproductions are improving. The collector must become familiarized with
the construction style and materials employed in the manufacturing of these medals.
Attention to the details is critical in order to be able to determine the authenticity of
the collectible.
