Hi Frank.
The St.Olav`s badge was used by Norwegian SS officers BUT also officers in the Hirdens Bedrifts Vern (a factory protection unit).

I have not seen a hand embroidered FHH cufftitle, looks like it may have been a standard one that was upgraded?
and the germania looks like it has the rayon borders, and teh I is a bit low, Hmmm.
But on first blush it looks authentic from here,Comment

cuff titles
Well, I can tell ya that these were brought out from hiding for the first time in decades (I was there).....There are accounts of hand embroidered types without borders, but rare.....one last thing, I did check for UV reception and they do not glow.....has the correct tag, thread, and all looks great, but I am no expert and am willing to take and transmit any specific photos that may be desired to authenticate.
