Avitas Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Hello all,I have for show this NSKK Transportkontrolle armband and what I think is a neck-piece with gold thread braided into the rope like piece. It is white with a different material black stripe in the middle. The rope is black, white, and gold. If anyone knows the proper name for it, please let me know. I purchased this as a set so I assume that the braided rope was to be worn around the neck, while the traffic cop with this armband directed the trucks to the front. If anyone else knows lots about the NSKK, I would like to hear the specifics of this armband. It is very smooth to feel and soft, and does not glow under blacklight (nor the white fabrics in the rope). I have pics of the stamps as well coming up. Any NSKK buffs out there?Thanks,Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Avitas Posted May 14, 2006 Author Share Posted May 14, 2006 Here is the neck-piece? braided rope type object. (sorry to get so technical ) I have not found any information on this NSKK item and any help would be great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avitas Posted May 14, 2006 Author Share Posted May 14, 2006 Here is a close-up of the detail of the braiding. This is a unique item and I wonder if anyone else out there has one. Please post your examples and any info,Thanks,Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avitas Posted May 23, 2006 Author Share Posted May 23, 2006 Also, this piece passes the burn test as well as the blacklight test by a mile. Pretty sure it's good, but any info on the item is helpful as I haven't been able to find any info on the specifics of this NSKK set (if it is indeed a set). Thanks a million!Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Coleman Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I do not see any problem with your armband. The braided cloth appears to be a sageo, the cord attached to the scabbard of a non military Japanese sword Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Avitas Posted August 29, 2006 Author Share Posted August 29, 2006 That's interesting Bob about the Sageo, I had my doubts as to it being a set but now it seems like it is deinitely not a set. I got them at a flea market from a very unknowledgable dealer, but the armband looked ok and both didn't glow under blacklight so I bought them. I am happy that it is indeed a good one and if anyone else has this uncommon NSKK Transportkontrolle armband please post your examples.Thanks Bob!Cheers,Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
