  1. Not from German perspective, but still on Eastern front of WWI, a novel "Dvēseļu putenis" (Blizzard of Souls), written by a veteran of WWI, contains several descriptions of close quarters combat, like storming a building, and when a grenade is mentioned, it was always "a lemon" grenade, which soldiers considered very useful and those could fit into pockets. It never specifies if those were made in Russia (novel's protagonists started as part of imperial Russian army), France, Britain or Germany, likely either French or made under licence in Russia (however, source I found says production in Russia started only after WWI under Bolshevik rule, before they were all supplied by France - around 1 million grenades F1).
