Heres a couple of my older knives. Im not sure how old they are but I know more than 20 years.

gotta love a Puma .... looks like its patterned after a Buck 110

At first glance, I would have sworn, Buck 110, until I saw the blade markings.

Agree with the others, I was thinking that looks a lot my ole Buck.
Nice pair Al.

That Puma has skinned a deer or 2 and been a great knife. It holds a good edge.

Those are cool and look well worn...

I have a heck of a time bringing my Buck back to a decent edge. Does the Puma German steel come back to a good edge fairly quick?

Stray Cat its been so long since I used that knife I dont remember. But I don know this it holds a good edge along time. Ive now gone to one of those knives with the changeable blades that are razor sharp.

Thanks Al. My grandpa could put an edge on a steel fence post. He could work the blade for 5 minutes and shave hair off his arm.
I suspect a lot had to do with the blade's steel, his stone, and his finesse for holding the blade at the proper angle to the stone.
Some how, the knife sharpening gene wasn't passed on to me.

Nice puma,I though it was a Buck 110.
