INERT DEACTIVATED. This is an original German WW1 Model 17 Eierhandgranate (egg hand grenade). The grenade is a small defensive hand grenade and 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 its original alloy screw in fuse and arming pull wire. 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. O 1717
