INERT DEACTIVATED. German WW1 Model 17 Eierhandgranate (egg hand grenade). Sn - 21642 INERT DEACTIVATED. This is an original German WW1 Model 17 Eierhandgranate (egg hand grenade). The grenade was introduced in early 1917 and is a small defensive hand grenade which was smaller than the large Kugelhandgranate. The body of the grenade was initially smooth and thus difficult to hold so the design was modified with the addition of a raised band to provide better grip as in this model. The grenade is in excellent condition and retains some of its original black painted finish and its original alloy screw in fuze. See German Grenades of the Great War by Patrice Deleomme. The price includes UK delivery and no licence is required to possess this grenade in the UK if retained as part of a collection or display. Sn 21642 £145.00 |
