PUMA Hunter's Pal.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 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 fitted 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 filed and finally burnished off for the best fit 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.Blade Length: 3 3/4".Blade Steel/hardness: 440C/ 57-60 HRC.Blade Thickness: 2.5 mm.Overall Length: 7 7/8".Handle Material: Staghorn.
