Unteroffizier's (NCO) portepee/troddel variants

[PanzerWolf]

Greetings, dear colleagues.
Is it correct to assume that the regulated unterofficer's portepee of the Wehrmacht was the variant with the weave as on the first photos and all other variants with non-standard weave (3rd and 4th photo) were private orders, which could be bought at your own expense? Or do they not belong to the Wehrmacht?

I'm assuming you are referring to the "stengel"/stalk of the troddel. I would suspect the 3rd and 4th photo are post war reproductions. The first one, whether issued or private purchase is clearly made with silver bullion thread, the other two appear not. Silver bullion typically deforms into flattened squashed areas as seen in the "Quaste"/tassel of the troddel in photo 1.

Yes, I'm talking about the stalk of the troddel. But it's not about specific examples (it's just a photo from the internet), but about types of stalk weaving in general. You can see many different examples on the internet, but are they all in accordance with Wehrmacht regulations?
