Austrian zeitzunder grenade

[paul the grenade]

Hi Guys.
Ive had this old grenade lying about for ages and thought its time i had a go at cleaning it up. It seemed to be caked in a combination of rust and rock hard mud. Once i started chipping at it with a small screwdriver it started t flake off quite easily revealing a very well preserved body with virtually no pitting. Interesting that the inside is fragmented as well as the outside.
cheers, Paul.:tinysmile_grin_t:

Looks great Paul, seems to have survived very well. I wish all grens would come up so well. Wonder if it was made of good quality metal? Must have been to look so good now.
Nice addition to the collection.
