Good day everyone,
Just purchased this NSDAP kampfbinde. I am no expert in this item but purchased from a reputable dealer.
Good day everyone,

I can't confirm authenticity as I am still learning the ropes myself but at least the D on the RZM tag corresponds with the wool armband so you can check that off the list. I was eyeing this myself at LST.
Hi, thanks for reply. Sorry I jumped the gun on this one if you were eyeing it. Hope to hear more responses from the forum members.
Any further opinions? I have noticed that the stitching of the swastika is visible through to the back on the armband, not like other examples that I have seen.
I think you are in the clear my friend. I have seen other armbands w/ this style swastika on reputable dealer sites & LST is a very reputable dealer so I don't think the fact the swastika is embroidered through the armband vs. being applied to a white field & then applied to the armband like most other armbands is automatically a sign this is a bad armband. I'm a new collector myself so I could be 100% wrong about this armband but since no one else is going to chime in, I figured i'd offer my 2 cents. Like I said, LST is a WRF recommended dealer & has a very good reputation in the community so even if this armband was determined not to be a period original, LST will make it right.
As I mentioned, i'm new to collecting myself but I focus virtually all of my attention on armbands so i'll gladly do some research for you on this armband but like I said, I think you're in the clear
