    Unusual GERMAN tool- need serious help with this one

    Years ago my father aquired a 1944 dot mauser rifle and a ww2 cartridge box. inside the cartridge box was a unuaual item. Inside was a capsul approximatly 3 1/2 inches long made of brass and covered in silver, this capsul unscrews in the middle and inside is a punch, blade screw driver, screw type awl and a cork screw. one of the sides has a slot that these tools fit into and when screwed back together it forms a T handle for using the tools. end of capsul is marked F.M. sprewerke AG Germanyicon. i have never seen anything like this, and alot of military guys i have shown it to haven't eather. What it appears to be in my opinion is some kind of german military tool that was issued to troops, but what years is unknown. I have tryed every kind of internet search and keep getting information on P-38's by sprewerke. idea of what years it may have been made is totaly unknown. has anyone ever seen anything like this??????? I currently have lent it to a friend who does military shows so he is trying to find out what it is also????
