Item Details

Description

Standard-issue Japanese Type 97 hand grenade, 4 in. tall and with a 2.5 in. dia., used by the Imperial Japanese Army and the Special Naval Landing Forces. The grenade features a cylindrical body with grooved segments, which rupture into many fragments of shrapnel upon detonation, with a brass striker tube and safety pin at the top. The grenade was detonated by screwing down the firing pin, pulling the safety pin, and then striking the cap against a rock, helmet, or other hard surface. The striker is absent, and the grenade has been rendered inert, but retains the striker tube and safety pin. Shows overall oxidation, else very good.
