The tag experts will have to make the call on that (looks good to me). The troddel itself is identical to one I own, except the colors. I think it's good and would buy it myself.

the knot is original (but not cheap) otherwise the tag does not belong to it. Normally this is a cloth tag with the letter F. When a tag then probably a black silk tag.

Thanks, yes indeed it is for sale in Poland and it is not cheap. I wanted to know if the trodel is legit wit the tag (which makes it more desirable).

I don't remember seeing a paper tag on a knot before now. I have a bayonet knot for the SS, but it isn't like this one. I do think the colors are possible however, so am not sure as to correctness.

The knot is correct but IMO RZM SS paper tags are only seen on late SS knots--and this is a very early one.
