- Hello my friends!
In this video, I will show you the restoration process of an original German M1940 Stahlhelm ( Steel Helmet ) from World War 2!
I was able to buy this original German helmet shell a while back for a good price.
The helmet is a later war Quist produced Stahlhelm, and was post war painted in black.
It's time to bring this helmet back to its former glory!
I hope you enjoy the video!! :)

The one restoration video that Nick doesn’t end up cutting himself 😂 nice one Nick love this one.
A VERY rare moment!! 😂
Yeah!!!!
Beautiful restoration
Hello nick, when will there be a trench video?🎉
Anny fanmail comming in?
I loved the trench vids and nick
Yeah that’ll be nice
All I honestly want in a Trench video is mostly raw footage. I don't care about the length, I just want to hear Nick talk about historically accurate things with whatever guest he invites
Yah that would be cool
I'm a simple man. I see Nick uploaded, I click.
Same
Glad to see you working on TH-cam again.
I prefer the M35 Helmets due to the double decals, but M40 are also quite nice.
It’s been 3 years since we have had a proper trench video :(
Its always a great day when nick posts a video
That intro is amazing! Always love the restorations man!
Thank you for watching!!
It's been quite a treat to see the notification pop up,your videos cheer me up a lot!
I really like how this helmet came out,like early mint condition,especially when you showed it next to the other ones you've made.
Also,playing the harmonica on the treadmill is a skill man,totally cracked me up with that ending,Thank you
I'm happy to hear that!! Yes, I love the look of mint helmets, ready to be played with, haha! 😂 I'm a crazy guy, I love playing Harmonica while I march! 😂😂
LETS GO!
Another video from Nick and its Stahlhelm restoration!!! Awesome! 😊
Btw the intro was great! 👍👍
Thank you for watching!!

This is so cool! I just wanna say your one of the best history/reenactor TH-camrs out there man. Your one of the reasons I got into history. I hope you have a amazing day bro
Thank you so much for the compliment!! I appreciate it, have a great day!!
Excellent video as usual, good to see you keeping history alive. By the way, New Zealand weather is even more unpredictable.
Hi Nick again I would just like to thank you so much because at times I have been down and I think to myself … LETS WATCH HISTORY SECRETS also you have really inspired me to collect
Thank you so much for watching!!
I have a question
Where do you get your German M35 helmets from???
It’s good to find your videos! well done !
thank you for making these types of videos with the knowledge of how you can give your won texture to the helmets i acutely got a bike helmet that was the shape of a m-1 helmet and made paint and used sand to give it texture
Hey Nick good to see you back in the loop.
I was waiting for the usual cut to the hand but you escaped, so no wound badge this time.
Interesting about Quist continued to produce the M40 until late war.
We need another battle instalment from Zer bunker 😊
Hahaha, I guess I was Lucky somehow... no wounds this time!! 😂 Thank you for watching!!
Yes more content !!! Im happy your back on TH-cam
Hello nick I just want to say I love your vids and they inspire me to live history this much all the love ❤❤❤

Thank you!!
@@History-Secrets I love your videos and have been watching every single one for a few years. I just want to say keep up the amazing work! You have inspired me and so many others!
Very nice restoration,my grandfather August Lindemann was a German soldier during WW1,,he came to South Africa after the war.I was a conscript in the South African Defence Force (1976-1977) and also a Angolan war veteran.I like your reenactment and trench videos,it’s such a pity that your MG 42 got damaged.In South Africa they do reenactments of the Boeren Oorlog (1899- 1902)during that period we were at war with Britain.Keep making videos,it’s much appreciated.
Hey there fellow South African 👋
Is jy Afrikaans?
Yay you’ve posted again!!!!!!!! Keep up the great work!!🪖🪖🪖
Thank you so much!!
Can you do a WW2 dutch impression vidio?
Like your videos.
Wow what a coincidence as I’m trying to get a good M40 for my Nord impression
Hey another video let’s go nick
Thank you!!
Glad to see you again mate really lovely helmet can't wait for the next video mate 👍
Great to see a restoration of an M40 stahlhelm. I love the result especially with the decal.
Wear do you think is the best place to pick up original stahlhelms for good prices?
Thank you! It's very hard to find 100% original helmets for good prices, they get more and more expensive.. and a lot of them are fake! Be sure to buy from well known websites!
Bro it’s been a while ! ❤
Great video Nick! Nice to see you back at it!
You know it’s a good day when history, secrets uploads
You know it’s a great historical accurate day when nick uploads!
Ah yes! A new H.S. video! It brightens my day off!

Well done Nick👌. Very nice job😊. Quist helmets were the best.
make video about how to spot real ww1/ww2 german helmet and how to spot the fake ones
Thank you for your work nick, I just want you to know that you have been my faforite youtuber for years, im 15 year old collector and dreaming of becoming an reenactor from Finland, you really match my wiew of preserving everything from history. Love you man, keep it historically accurate!

Yes please upload more this is so cool. I have a US M1 that I’m going to restore because I watched your video on how do you do it?
you are my favorite youtuber. You gave me inspiration to make my yugoslav wars collection
Thank you so much!!
I also collect stuff from the Yugoslav wars, what kind of stuff do you have?
@@KB-5.Feldartillerie-RegimentI have one m93 uniform a m89 uniform JNA officer colonel uniform JNA m77 uniform 2 helmets one JNA 1992 and one JNA with the red star. I have a combat backpack and a messin with cantine and PJP Kosovo war uniform blue tiger stripes with beret and combat vest and a lot of berets
@@KB-5.Feldartillerie-RegimentI love collecting stuff from Yugoslav wars because mostly cheap and they are really cool
@@srbin.mapper3 Awesome! I have an M59 helmet, an M59/85, an M89, a Croatian used M56/76, a Croatian used M59, a Croatian used M1 helmet, and a Croatian vest.
mooi gedaan!🤩
Just did my first resto on a Finnish M40/55 to a Wehrmacht 1940 stahlhelm. I got a repro decal, liner, liner band, and chin strap and aged them according to your instructions from numerous vids. Turned out great and looks great setting on my homemade M24 stick grenade helmet stand. JAWOHL!!!
Love seeing these restoration videos ❤
Great video Nick. With temperatures often soaring past 100 degrees in Melbourne, you could really age a liner band perfectly with a good afternoon's worth of gardening here!
WOW Great Job !! im impressed .
Can you please do a tour of your World War II collection, each one of those items you have it’s so cool because someone was holding it in the war
Beautiful video
Great job, the final result is amazing!
Thank you Nick for your job ! You encouraged me to become a reenactor and now I know how to restore helmets too
Greetings from Poland and we cant wait for more videos ♥️♥️♥️
Hey Nick. I'm just here to tell you I got my first M40 and m34 helmets. Have a good day
Awesome, congratulations!!
It’s always good when nick posts new vids
I bought the same helmet and I'm renovating it too ;)
Thank u nick this was a epic video ❤
God bless you sir and amazing video once again. I do have a question, is paint made during WW2 any different than modern paint? Paint now has alot of synthetic materials in it now. Do you know the ingredients of typical paint used for the war? Thank you
Thank you!! Paint back in the day was different, but there are companies producing paint that is really close to the original! The paint I use in this video contains Aluminium Oxide for texture, just as they did back in WW2!
@@History-Secrets Thank you for the reply.
Looks good.
Super Kool video. Love your Helmets.
Love your channel Nick! Big big fan!❤
Thank you wery much i love your videos i think your the best youtuber and you would deserv more views keep it up bro your so a legend bro
So cool.
Another great video Nick, i'm glad your back. Keep u the good work.
When do you go metal detecting again?
Hi.
Depending on how the helmet looked like before you restored it, I think it was used by Czechoslovakian civil defense or firefighters. After the war they, there was a lot of german helmets left here. So they repainted them black and often replaced the liner, chinstrap and splitpins. The splitpins were a little bigger than original ones and on your helmet you can see the mark on the paint they left after they were removed.
Very nice restoration!
Yes, I'm sure you're right! Thank you for watching!!
Heeeeeeesssss BACKKKKKK
Nice helmet, you inspire me!!
Nice nick altijd blij als ik na jouw video's kijk❤
Leuk om te horen!!
Very well done
Wow very cool!!!!
Thank you!!
keep making these
Awesome video Keep up the good work
Yes please show all of your restorations
Omg thank you i struggle with the decal until now
I have a German helmet , my uncle, asa Armantrout gave me when I was a kid. He was a paratrooper in WW2. The one I have is the only one that wasn't rusted away. He had a 55gal barrel of them on the roof of his house that he'd sent home. The last one, mine was in decent shape, it has the name abel on the inside. He told me abel wasn't able to wear it anymore. Hard man.
Nice video
Very cool, is it a m35?
Wist nooit wat ik miste in het leven, maar nu weet ik het! Een Duitse soldaat die harmonica speelt op een loopband, danku Nick!
