The SA pattern buckle was originally worn byother Nazi organizations including the SS, the NSKK, the NSBO, and politicalleaders. The SA box buckle was officially replaced by the rectangular, openframe, dual claw buckle in April of 1934, and was to be discontinued in 1936,although it was still widely worn.
