Knex grenade with firing pin

 by le bibbo
A simple yet effective grenade. It has a "door" in front, a hatch for putting ammo in (on the back), and a pin that is locked in place. This grenade is also very small and easy to build (perfect for beginners).

How does this explode? Rubberbands? Or does it just fall apart?

Please help!

the most realistic grenade on this site, spoon, pin, and shrapnel 5*!
thomaswatton in reply to geodezAug 31, 2009. 10:39 AM
Yes it is a fantastic knex grenade, but no it does not have spoon but if you read my comment below you will see that i have made one with a spoon which flings off and when this happens it explodes (usually in mid air which is cool because you don't have to throw it at the horund)
geodez in reply to thomaswattonAug 31, 2009. 3:52 PM
the "door" is the spoon.
thomaswatton in reply to geodezSep 1, 2009. 1:45 AM
Wel li guess you could call it "the spoon" but it isnt really a spoon is it. Google spoons on grenades and they won't look like that.
geodez in reply to thomaswattonSep 1, 2009. 7:18 AM
it functions like a spoon, i don't care what it looks like.
thomaswatton in reply to geodezSep 2, 2009. 6:12 AM
No it functions nothiing lyk a spoon it does not fling off it mearly falls off and a spoon does not release sharpnel when it comes off.
geodez in reply to thomaswattonSep 2, 2009. 10:24 AM
it is close enough, this is a functional, realistic grenade, end of story.
thomaswatton in reply to geodezSep 2, 2009. 11:22 AM
Start of story again lol, yes it probably is the most realistic grenade but no it is no where close to being a spoon, it is more of a hatch if anything.
geodez in reply to thomaswattonSep 2, 2009. 12:26 PM
it is like a spoon, but it does not function like a spoon, you are right.
thomaswatton in reply to geodezSep 3, 2009. 8:04 AM
Ok i guess we are both right, so i am gad we have settled this nnow lol and hmmm!? lol
geodez in reply to thomaswattonSep 3, 2009. 11:14 AM
ok, it is settled. and can you delete your extremely long HMM comment? because it is so long the reply button is covered by the contest panel.
thomaswatton in reply to geodezSep 4, 2009. 11:53 PM

geodez in reply to thomaswattonSep 5, 2009. 11:25 AM

Wow, so many replies!
geodez in reply to charge11595Oct 5, 2009. 5:13 PM
yes.
thomaswatton says: Jul 10, 2009. 9:17 AM
I've just done a mod to this grenade wat i did was switch round a cuple of pices and add a spoon 2 the grenade and attached a few rubberbands to it. So now when u pull the pin out your hand is the only thing holding the spoon down so when u throw it the spoon flys off. This causes the hatch to be forced open and highly increases the blast raduis of the green rods. This also alows the grenade 2 blow up in mid air so it does not have to be thrown at the ground P.s sorry 4 the essay
geodez in reply to thomaswattonAug 31, 2009. 3:53 PM
do you have any proof?
thomaswatton in reply to geodezSep 1, 2009. 1:47 AM
At the moment no, becasues I have been quite busy so i have not taken a photo yet but i might soon (if i can be arsed lol). And if you don't believe me i really don't care.
geodez in reply to thomaswattonSep 1, 2009. 7:18 AM
oh, okay.
thomaswatton in reply to geodezSep 2, 2009. 6:12 AM
