Looks like a Puma "Skinner".
What, if any, numbers are on the hilt ?
They sell for $150-175 based on condition.
Nice blade.

Looks like a nice example of a Puma when the name meant high quality production knives. The company seemed to slip for a while, but I've read here that they are improved lately
