The can has an ink stamp K and underneath something which I can't make out and then looks like a 4 and then 1944.

The stick has a tiny stamping of an eagle on it but I can't capture it with my camera. Tim.

Hi Michael, I can't see any other markings on the handle and I only noticed the Waffenampt about a week ago, even though I had this grenade for a few years. I only know the basics when it comes to stick grenades but felt this one was OK when I bought because of the overall look feel and smell, I am just getting slightly paranoid with all the fakes that are floating about. Tim.

It appears, from the photos, that this M24 is off the 1943 vintage. There should be a date and code on the handle somewhere. The repros are not really that good yet.
