I don't know exactly when this one was designed, but must have been at the end of the war. Date on the photo below says 1944. The body is made of a magnesium alloy, the fuze and filling plug are both magnesium. Cap had to be removed and the fuze had to be struck to a hard object to ignite the 5seconds fuze delay. The grenade was not taken in use with the armed forces.
