You mean Nazis came up with something original? I'm very skeptical of that.

It's not really new in the sense that it's the same ole "dress old symbols in new clothing to circumvent the ban on use of those symbols". I think the HKN KRZ thing came after Londsdale, the clothing producer, came down quite heavily on Nazis abusing their brand (If you take a Lonsdale shirt and wear a jacket over it says "nsda", only a "p" apart from what the Nazis want to wear). It's more craftiness, not really creative in the pure meaning of the word. Gollum is crafty, too.
