Please Identify Entrenching Tools

[Bravo Bandits]

I found these e-tools in the rafters in my basement and I am not even sure where they came from. With that said I have been looking at photos of e-tools for hours and I cannot seem to ID what country these two are from. The folding one has no marks on it and it kinda of looks like a German WWII e-tool. With that said there are obvious differences and and the other one has a triangle with 1997 under it and that is the only marking. Any help is appreciated!

I do believe that you are correct and I appreciate the information.  One down!

Folding one might be the Dutch copy of the German Klappspaten... if folded, is the head flush to the handle or at a slight angle?

I thought it was Dutch but I ruled it out because they have a ball at the end of the handle. There is also a strip of steel at the base of the spade I guess to re-enforce the tool. But i do appreciate your input.  Thanks!
