Gold Fixed Blade
PUMA® Gold series – these knives are made in Solingen, Germany and have long set the standard for the ultimate hunting knife. Whether for skinning, caping, or general work, PUMA® knives are the best you can get. The stag handles are formed from the shed antlers of Wild Stag Deer and each stag-handled knife is a truly unique, one-of-a-kind tool. Each scale (handle) is boiled, stretch and dried over a period of weeks. It is then individually cut and hand fi tted to your knife. Depending on the model, brass rivets are then used to attach the scales to the knife and they are welded together. The rivet heads are then fi led and fi nally burnished off for the best fi t and function imaginable. While this old-fashioned manufacturing method is more expensive, we think this is the way to make a one-of-a-kind knife. The handle edges are rounded for comfort. Hold a PUMA® knife in your hand, and feel the difference. Kraton and wood handled-knives are modern versions of the traditional stag handle knife.

Very Dull Out of the Box
Hugh Stockton
(Orlando, FL)
5/15/2013 9:10 AM
I was surprised and disappointed at how dull this knife was out of the box. I guess i've been spoiled by the fine sharpness of Spiderco, Al Mar, Case, CRKT and William Henry products. No more Pumas for me.
PS - i'm in the process of sharpening it, but it's been a long, tedious process.
