![]() World War Militaria and Collectibles “Stahlhelm” (plural Stahlhelme) is German for ‘steel helmet’. In 1916, during World War I, the Imperial German Army began to replace the traditional boiled leather Pickelhaube (spiked combat helmet) with the Stahlhelm. “Stahlhelm” refers both to a generic steel helmet, and more specifically to the iconic and distinctive German design. This WW II helmet displays the dreaded Waffen SS logo, similar to the shape of two lightning strikes (Blitzkrieg).
