Souvenirs From a Combat Engineer Veteran

I have been buying several WWII German souvenirs from a local combat engineer veteran that is still with us and doing well for his age. This small lot is from my 3rd trip to see him and isn't much but thought I would show it as this is probably the closest I will come to finding an SS panzer wrapper.

That's a weird configuration for the Panzer insignia.

 

The piping is a pre and early war thing that was soon stopped in like 1942 or so but the SS tab is a late war bevo style.

 

Is the piping sewn into the collar seam ? Can you show a picture of the bottom of the collar?

Very nice. Is the blade on the youth knife in good shape?

 

 

The blade was in decent shape unsharpened with some age darkening.

Sorry I only took a couple quick photos but none of the backs. I don't really collect much and have already moved these items along.
