Hi,
Great to see some nice pictures of Japanese ordnance being posted by BOCN members.
I thought I would add a couple more pieces.
Cheers,

Hello

Very interesting. (It seems an old WWI fuze !)

May you tell the height and diameter, please ?
 
Hello Pascal,
I don't own a scientific measuring gauge.
So, my measurements are give or take a few mm's either way.
The Type 89 Fuze is approximately 95mm in height and approximately 53mm in diameter.
Cheers,
