Personaly I do not like "square" heads sculls, but I can't exactly say they are bad- the paper tags on both is applied with similar manner, and both batch number C could be for a embroidery made later than a vertical tabs, but this is only my opinion.. The SS 3 for Mannshaft has a wrong label, which must be prefexed B for machine embroidery. The Stf tabs are definately not a best quality, but runes officer's tab is looks good. Even it's a mixed with some suspicious insignia.
--------------------
I think it is a not a new generation of fakes, I have seen similar a while ago in the dealer's sites and here on the forum.
We can find a bad copies from Pakistan- they are not trying to reproduce originals, 10 USD is anougth for them for each tab. If we are speaking about the peoples who made the fakes and he is reading the forum, I guess he is understand more in the insignia and technologies than we are all together

Gentlemen,

I believe Pieters response is correct. I have learned quite a lot from this forum and GHW. The forums are super. Info that has been collected from years and years of experience is dangerous in the wrong hands. I think the reader has to learn to read the info that has been presented. It takes a lot of time and study. IMO.

All very lame

I posted these collar tabs hoping for useful and detailed commentary, I have been away working at a secure governmant site (literally) and I return and see the drivel left, you say 'oh I won't give details or the fakers will take note' - what a load of drivel. Useless tools you are, I will return to my secure government bunker and fondle my TK collar tabs knowing not 1 valid detailed crititicism was made, if I do hear one valid detailed criticism I will gladly mail you a pair to testicles free of charge...

This is precisely why I rarely not respond to such threads any longer. It is not worth the grief we too frequently receive as a reward for trying to help people.

Those who are too lazy to do their own research come here expecting to receive detailed information from subject matter experts, on demand and for free. However, when they are not given the spoon feeding, to which they foolishly believe they are entitled and/or they receive answers, which they simply do not like, they ridicule or personally attack those who kindly offered them assistance.

This fool got useful information; he simply doesn't recognize it or can't appreciate it. And now, thanks to his attitude, he will get no more.
