I love the vent window on the beetle.
Must have been a protype KDF Bug.

Hard to swallow that those spoons are of original KdF Wagen era

I love how the scratches in the spoons don't go through the logos on the spoon handles.

There's another set pictured on Google images that has a company logo of an "S" that looks a lot like Studebaker's lazy S emblem. They are centered and straight on those spoons, whereas on these KDheffers, they are off-center.
I've got to go with the ruling of the panel on this one: B.S.

I believe the OG KDF logo should have 3 cog teeth here but I am not sure if there were variations.

Laser engraving in the 1940's? That would come as a shock to Bell Labs since they didn't invent the laser until the late 50's.
Must be one of those secret Nazi wonder weapons. |

In the listing, it mentions that the spoons are marked "alpacca" . . . .
Do a Goggle search using alpacca silverware . . . .

I thought it was a misspelling of "alpaca" as in pulling the wool over your eyes. |

Yeah . . . I think that Der Führer and Dr. Porsche would be appalled if the Kanteen at
Volkswagenwerk was serving knödel dumplings using those fake KdF Wagen silverware spoons . . . . . .

Maybe someone will say they will buy them, only to knife the seller.

The KdF Wagen dinner recipe calls for 6 tablespoons of Alpacca
