SS cuts sleeve eagles are very tough to authenticate, but I like the look of this one!

Nice Luft insignia!
On those two eagles which you stated were glued, they appear to just be uncut and perhaps the green fabric is just the backing. Interesting..

I really enjoy cut-offs a lot, but I certainly do not have advanced knowledge of cloth. That is why I have had to rely on obtaining my cut-off items from sources that I consider solid and trustworthy. My SS cut-offs are displayed by my computer and they are kind of hard to photograph properly without having to dismantle the whole display. Let me know if you want to see close-ups of the front or back of any.
Mike Davis will probably recognize many of these.... 
By the way, the only one I personally consider "iffy" is the sleeve eagle on the SS smock camo material (cutoff at the bottom, to the left of SS eagle and rank cutoff). Although the stitching looks nice, I only have it as a temporary place filler.

Close-up of the ,,Der Fuhrer'' cuff title on part of the sleeve. The tab and the eagle reportedly came together with the cuff-title, so they remain together.

Very nice Walter!!
Love that cut Panzer tab as well. And, the first flatwire Luft eagle I have seen.
