The Stielhandgranate 24 handle is the hollow wooden grip of Germany's standard stick grenade, adopted by the Reichswehr in 1924 and made until about 1944, when the simplified Stielhandgranate 43 replaced it. The handle is turned from hardwood and treated with linseed oil. A threaded metal fitting at the top, sealed with compound, takes the grenade head. A metal sleeve with a cardboard ring covers the joint to keep out moisture. The hollow interior held the Brennzünder 24 friction igniter, which had a delay of about 4.5 seconds, and a pull cord ending in a porcelain bead. A screw-on safety cap at the base protected the cord until use. Collectors separate production stages by the top fittings. Early handles had the sleeve held by four small screws. From about 1942 the sleeve was fixed by four pressed triangular notches. A late 1943–44 variant had pressed threads and a wider sleeve band. Training handles carry a reinforced cap and an Ueb or Üb marking. Manufacturer codes and dates are stamped on the wood.
