Your kit looks very impressive. I'm assuming that it's not real WW2 surplus, so I'm kind of curious as to where you got it.

I have some original wwII surplus on me

Bayonet --- 1944
Folding shovel --- 1940
Canteen --- 1940
Breadbag --- no date, apparently original, which I'm not so sure... I believe it's a early postwar.
Belt --- around 1935, according to the seller.
Mess tin --- postwar, but same size and almost same model as original
Gas mask --- original, unfortunately no date, but I believe it's late war.

Uniform, helmet, y-strap, mp40 pouches, bayonet frog, it's reproduction.

I got stock from ebay, gunshow, internet seller (at the front, 1944militaria)
