armband

You would think that the swastika would have been sewn to the white diamond before the diamond was attached to the armband. I'm also not keen on how the diamond is sewn on. Let's wait to see what others say, but I'm not sure it's a good one.

This is not a headband, but armband. If good, is up to the "experts"!

Thought the same on the swastika. Doesn't make much sense when you think about it.

The black light test is not a positive source for judgement anymore. The fakers have now manufactured items that do not glow. I have seen this manner of fabricating an armband only recently. This may be the same one. The construction does not follow that of any known original HJ armband. I would consider it a total fake.
