I'm no expert on these. Hopefully someone will be around. But I have a practice version (see below). Not sure if there were other practice types.
Also, here is a good site that may help ID if it is fake or real.
German Stick Grenades, WWII - Inert-Ord.net
And mine....(an old old picture). The holes are to release the gas that was produced when the glass capsule broke after it was thrown...or so I have been told.

My greatest fear is that one day I will die and my wife will sell my guns for what I told her I paid for them

Thanks for the reply, I was waiting for a comment. Yes I found that site and I don't know if it was. It was at the same place where I got the helmet ( got that crap off it btw) . I have seen reproduction metal ones and this one just had some different type of markings. On it. So Im not sure.
wish I could help more. Sure others will be around. Just give it some time.
Given the like new condition I would be cautious.
