You are a strange person who is defending.
What’s the real question here ?
The tab or the story ?

Huhh??? I didn't understand a single thing you just said, but doesn't matter because I'm done with this discussion with you.

The K collar tab is unquestionably real. I'm really surprised this discussion is taking place.
Thanks for posting this haul - that's the type stuff we all hope to uncover in our searches.

How do you know it’s real ?

Experience. This is textbook construction.
I think the real question is why in the world would you think it's fake?

Look at it
It’s plainly obvious why it’s ground up fake

What text book says this is real ?

Owen, this is going nowhere. I'll let you believe what you want to believe, but you should educate yourself before declaring such items to be replica.Originally posted by kammo man View Post

I have deeply taken the course and found this tab not what you would want to put in your collection for 10 k
What have you learned about SS silver wire ?

Robert E & Robert H,
I appreciate your support here as this was my biggest concern once Dr. Strangelove questioned it in the original Thread.
If there were numerous known original examples of these to compare and there was a level of consistency among them that this did not conform to then OK, the discussion should go deeper, but that isn't the case here. Look at the example attributed to Weitze and the example photographed in Beaver's book. Does Weitze's look annyyything like the one in the photo of the SS soldier wearing one or what is shown in Beaver's book? No. I guess that makes it fake. The angled part of the legs flare out like bell bottoms and the wire embroidery looks spurious at best. The tab I've provided looks like the other two examples. Both mine, and the example in Beaver's book both show a common unmistakable characteristic - that dimple at 12:00 where the wire embroidery makes the downturn on the upper crossbar.
I am really trying to wrap my head around why Owen is on a Jihad to first, not only question this tab when it clearly conforms to the photographed examples, but more importantly to me on a personal level, call me a liar implying I conjured up a fantastic story to legitimize the tab, like what was done with the SS camo helmet covers in Europe. Do I need to have the old guy I got this stuff from have an affidavit notarized backing-up what happened between us? He still has more stuff that we're working on, but I won't even dare post it here now (couple of belt buckles, some pins, and two helmets [not SS]).
I think those who know me personally here will vouch for the fact that I approach this hobby with integrity and don't need to fabricate s... to legitimize the items I get.
Thanks again!
