    After more than 200 views and 18 vots we can make a short summary...Charlemagne is surprisingly (at least for me) leading...I cannot really remember to have seen a CT with Horst Wessel or Skanderbeg...in the converse I do remember of a couple of Charlemagne...Is there any member here able to show me at least one of those (even privately)??

      Some more I have rarely seen (besides Allg. SS and all the unconfirmed W-SS ones):

      -Hermann von Salza
      -Florian Geyer
      -Michael Gaissmair
      -SS-Polizei
      -Thule

        I like this topic - very clever idea.

        About the only cufftitle I can recall seeing with any regularity in photographs is Hitlerjugend. All of the others would be a special occassion for me.

          true, but I saw at least one of them all ( hmm maybe Thule not..). They are of course very scarce as well. But sadly I saw none of the 2 mentioned above. But keep coming sharing your experiences.

            HJ is also not easy to find, but nothing compared to the others inclusive Fallschirmjäger that I rarely saw..maybe 2 times ever.

                SS Schule teachers from Holland are quite rare to see...

                  Leibstandarte and Das Reich are quite common, but I agree with the less prestigous divisions/regiments.

                      Yet another

                      BTW -
                      "Estland" cufftitle is IMHO ultra rare.

                        Cuff Titles in wear

                        Greetings,
                        Just thought I'd add My 2 cents worth. Any one seen a photo of the SS Totenkopfverbande Cuff Title in Sutterlien Script lately? Please excuse My spelling. Sincerely, DJB

                          Already 3 CTs....very nice guys...I would be nice if others has some CTs to post from the poll (just a zoom of the CT will be enough)....

                          @David
                          I do not think to have ever seen the SS Totenkopfverbände...

                            SS Sleeveband

                            Hello Edgar,
                            Here is an interesting one from the Totenkopfverbande. Most of these guys would be wearing Skull Collar tabs instead of the runic tab this guy is wearing. Sincerely, DJB
