Finnish Bombs from the 30s and 40s were generally armed with Bofors/Tolfvan nose bomb fuzes designed by Ernst Otto Utter, a Finnish officer who became Bofors representative in Finland before becoming Tolfvan's main technical adviser.
My understanding is that the SKis fuze corresponds to the 1928 Utter's patent while the SKisj fuze corresponds to the 1938 Utter's patent.
1928 patent:

1938 patent:

SKisj:

These fuzes correspond also to the Swesdish Bofors Spetsrör m/1932-39 and Spetsrör m/41
(BTW What SKis and SKisj stand for - S is probably sytytyskytkin = ignition fuze, but what are the other letters for?)
However I found photographs of a Tolfvan bomb with quite different, vanes activated, fuzes (front and rear) :

Can someone identify these fuzes and furnish some data about them?
