Here's an interesting little 'jobber' submitted by Mario:
| Quote: | My friend believes this was used in WWII and the date is correct to support
this assumption. It is a Japanese blaster used to set off explosive charges.
The photos show the complete unit. It is in excellent condition and appears
to be a nickel plate over brass. The cord is simply pulled, like a lawn
mower and then - bang!....My friend states that this unit actually works (he is an
instructor on explosive devices for various governmental agencies). The cord
and every part is original. Please let me know if any info comes to light.

| Quote: | Steve Hayama has translated the plate as:
93SHIKI DENKI TENKAKI Type93 Electric Spark device
BANGOU 1907 Number 1907
KYO SEIZO 13NEN 2GATSU Tokyo Manf. 1938 Feb.
KOKUSAN DENKI KABUSHIKI KAISHA
Domestic Electric Corporation
Included is a photo of a crimper that he also believes to be WWII Japanese
(no markings). |
 
Can anyone else shed some more light on this nifty little 'door stop'?

I didn't pay to much for that old Arisaka, I just bought it a little bit too soon! |
