I picked this up for a song today, and I guess it may not be worth a song? This is way out of my area and appeal for help on this from more knowledgable collectors....Dano

image.jpgimage.jpgAs far as I can tell, only the handle stands a chance at being legit. Can ya unscrew cap & get apic inside that end? The eagle looks a litte suspect too, though. I'm no expert though. 1st pic is from what I believe to be authentic stick ( practice grenade ) & then close up of yours.

Thanx Tim, My school of thought had leaned me toward a good (legit) handle and a bogus can. Again knowing absolutely nothing about German WWII stick grenades I based it on not much more than hope! I don't have much at all in it and if nothing else I can I could thump a would be burglar with it. Live and learn.....Dano

Never seen a stick with an eagle. Normally the 5 1/2 Sek plus a maker.

Not my area of expertise but I'd be wary. Looks nice though.
