A gust of wind from the Cold War! Before the communists seized power and drew the country into Warsaw Pact, Czechoslovakia was a civilized nation with good armed forces. Even during the red era, the Czechs kept a small flame of freedom going on in secret.

The material is brass and may pick up a nice shine if that's your thing. Brass will harden from cold manipulation. In understandable terms: don't bend the prongs back and forth, back and forth. They can be annealed by bringing the metal to a slight glow with a hobby torch or one of those fancy modern-day lighters with a blue flame. At your own risk, of course!

Various branches

Figuring out the correct branch names was a combination of nerdy experience on military history as well as some image searching with Czech keywords. We hope to have all of them correct but don't use this page as an authoritative source in online arguments scientific studies. If you know better, shoot us an email and we'll come up with creative excuses.

Czechoslovakian surplus
