I saw the Randall knife topic got revisited again.
Another brand I like is Puma.
I can't post pics, and have just a few Puma knives, compared to serious collectors. Most were bought to use. (But have been cared for.)
Any other Puma fans here, who can post photos? The older ones are getting very collectible. I'm sort of nostalgic about them. They're certainly exceptional knives, with a lot of hand work in them. I was disappointed to learn that the family who had held the brand since 1769 sold it about 15 years ago. Not sure of the current owners. Judging from Online pics, they've made some changes and several of the German folding hunting knives now all use the same blade shape, probably a production economy.
Do you use and like Puma knives? Which are favorites? I especially like the Hunter's Pal, the Outdoor, and the fancier version, the Model 3589. I have a White Hunter. I won't sell it, but think it's not the best all-round knife. Pretty good for one designed by a committee, though.
