Steve,

you ask for the opinion of other collectors and here you have it.
Everything what you say might be truth, as everything what other people say might be truth.

In the end is the question, do you believe other people opinions and are you happy with this tab?

Thanks for the replies.

It is 'sloppy' in terms of how its put together, the materials look pretty good though. I don't know when it was made but it's not recent. From a California militaria show in 89/90 or thereabouts, 10 years or so before this forum started, so way to late to run! ....and so also probably not related to the e-medals examples linked here.

A little more effort would have made this a lot more dangerous. Like more accurate unterlagen and just being a bit neater with the aluminium tube....

Maybe it was a Friday fake, perhaps the Monday to Thursday ones were a lot neater and real.

In my opinion it is fake too.

I've not looked at it for many years, pictures and knowledge have grown a lot better since so it was interesting to ask with better pictures than I could have shown anyone in 1990.

You think its fake and you say it's original thread, can you say which is original thread, the runic tubular wire, the outside piping wire, the sewing up thread?

If you mean its all original parts then the only way a collector can tell if genuine is if its just sewn together sloppily?

Thanks...

Thanks for your message, I believe you mean the buckram is not original.

Considering the age of this tab, almost a couple of decades, I was wondering if anyone could show the current most dangerously good fake, how good are they now?

I've been looking through fake database here on the Forum but the last update was 6 years ago.

Here's a recent fake set I bought for study. Probably not a superfake , but of paki descent likely.
