These genuine BW German Army wooden tent pegs secure heavy-duty shelters in tough terrain.

Cold War Bundeswehr Heritage

Originally issued to the West German Bundeswehr during the Cold War, this classic altes Modell (old model) was designed to secure heavy modular unit tents and command shelters. Built to keep large canvas structures stable in fierce winds, they reflect demanding military specifications, making them a rare, durable find for collectors and historical reenactors alike.

Robust Wood & Steel Construction

Each peg is made with a solid ash wood core, chosen for its natural impact resistance and elasticity under ground stress. To prevent splitting, the head is banded with a pinned steel collar that absorbs mallet blows. The point features a conical steel cap that drives through rocky, hard-packed clay without blunting, maintaining its integrity over years of rugged use.

Heavy-Duty Camping & Bushcraft

Measuring 40cm in length with a substantial 40mm diameter, these pegs offer incredible holding power that modern plastic stakes cannot match. The built-in steel side ring secures guy lines under heavy tension and acts as a leverage point for fast extraction. They are perfect for anchoring heavy winter tarps, bell tents, and canvas group shelters in loose or wet soil.

Equip your next bushcraft camp or historical display with these genuine German military-issue wooden stakes.
