The Rooster Posted April 22, 2019 Author Share #7 Posted April 22, 2019 Looks like a Schlueter....mike HIMike, How can you tell? Whats on it that makes you say Schluter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted April 22, 2019 Author Share #8 Posted April 22, 2019 I found and watched this So... I am guessing you think this is a schluter because of the round shape whereas a a McCord goes straight up slightly and then curves? This one looking curved like a schluter?Maybe the brim is slightly flatter and the bottom not so curved as a McCord? Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sgtdorango Posted April 22, 2019 Share #9 Posted April 22, 2019 Yes the over all shape compared to the more curvy McCord.....mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken88 Posted April 23, 2019 Share #12 Posted April 23, 2019 I'd agree on it being a Schlueter. Their shape sticks out to the trained eye. Other hints of Schlueter production are the S often found near the lot number and the typical circular weld marks where the rim meets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rooster Posted April 24, 2019 Author Share #13 Posted April 24, 2019 The Steel Pot arrived today. Its a beauty and there is an S stamped into it. Ive tried Contacting the VFW post that Mr Ernst was a member of (Thank you AZNATION ) No replies yet. I thought of trying to reunite the lid with Mr Ernsts family. In any case its a real nice example of a Schluter Front seam swivel bail. As near as I can make out…. The stamping number is 334 with a Big S underneath. All I know is its ww2 production from what I can gather. And Mr Ernst was a Korean War Vet. Seems to be a real authentic Korean War used Marked Schluter Steel Pot.?
