As someone that deals with that stuff on a daily basis, I'd say you should contact the closest EOD unit. Old ordnance can be quite dangerous and unstable, especially foreign stuff. Even a current SEAL or Special Forces would not be able to tell you if those are safe or not. As far as I can tell in the pic, they are an old japanese mortar and hand grenade of WWII vintage. As far as live or inert, no way to tell from my perspective. They need to be checked out in person by an expert.

Where did they come from?
