German explosive cutters Sprenggreifer

[MINENAZ16]

Hello,

I'm looking for pictures (and diagrams) of German navy explosive cutters "Sprenggreifer" type A and type B to understand differences between these two models.
(I already have doc and pictures of Type D)


Is it a Type A or Type B ?








Sprenggreifer Type D







Sprengkrallengreifer m.V.

No it hasn't... Despite the text, your drawing shows the Type D (source?)
