Spade - Swiss, German, something else?

Post by leicanthrope »

I suspect this spade may be Swiss in origin, but it lacks the brass pin in the grip that Swiss shovels seem to always have. I can't see any markings on it, but they may well be buried under the paint. Can anyone tell if this is Swiss, German, or something else?
