Grenade ID question

[US-Subs]

Not sure about this one, some similarities to a No. 28. Heavy body, only markings are a numeral 1 and an S inside a diamond. Thoughts?

I wanted to bump this thread, anybody?

Looks more like a door knob! Military, for the use of.....

I don't deny the looks, but it is actually a bit large, at the opening it has a screw in plug with a hex hole. Here is the other end. Came from the grenade section of an old private collection. That doesn't necessarily mean anything, but better than "I found it on the street".

"but better than "I found it on the street".

If that were in the Netherlands in front of a coffeeshop or pub I could ashure you it's a handgrenade.:tinysmile_cry_t2:

Maybe some sort of finial.

I think the S inside the diamond is the thing to check out.
