Beautiful hat! I always wanted a Janke crusher. I heard they are the next best thing to an original. Insignias are looking great too! I assume these are also replicas. May I know from which dealer please. I have been looking for decent adler and skull for a while but did not find satsfying ones. But yours are great!

Hi,the eagle is a polish copy,part of a set I got at the War & peace show in the Uk,but have no contact details,the skull is not that brillient I repainted it metalic silver it will do until hopefully I can pick up a polish TK at this years show.In the states this firm has european made eagle and skulls for $75 http://www.1944militaria.com.
here is an internal shot of the cap,I have Erel repro's but although cheaper,fade into comparison to a Janke.

Nice hats, I had never heard of GD43 before. I just checked out their web site, thanks for the heads up!

Italian gabardine M43 made by Alex (GD43). The color is the closest thing to original Italian gabardine I have encountered thus far and the trap is pretty sweet as well! I really think Alex makes the best M43's on the market period.
