    Description

    The US Army Signal Corps TE-33 Tool Kit has been fielded since World War II and continues to be prized by collectors and radiomen. Starting with the CS-34 leather pouch that holds the tools, the TE-33 harkens back to an era where tools were designed for skilled professionals. With the TL-29 electricians knife and TL-13 pliers that are found inside the CS-34 pouch, a Signal Corpsmen would have virtually everything they needed to maintain their radio equipment.
    We have original military TE-33 tool kits now available for sale that are complete, including both the TL-13 pliers and TL-29 knives. These tools were produced post-WWII and came to us sealed in a wooden crate dated 1958. They were produced for use by NATO forces in Europe and for Signal Corps operations in the Korean War but were never used. Most of the TL-13 tools were preserved by dipping in beeswax and all of the pouches show signs of verdigris which is further evidence to the age of these vintage original pouches. The TL-29 knives feature wooden panels and are marked appropriately for the era, and all the tools fit perfectly into the CS-34 pouch.
