Hey Paladin, that good lookin' Eye Brand you got there was called a "waidmesser" or gamekeeper. I have one that was made by Puma (pre 1964). Really cool knives.

Never been one much for imported FB's prefering more domestic types like Bark Rivers, Beckers, Rangers, and the like. But, I have developed a fondness for Helle's.....

Superb knives. I tried a Mora and wasn't all that impressed, but I also got a Marttiini and I am really liking those as well.......

Nice Helles. The Moras are a decent knife for what they cost but not in the same league with Helle.

Correction---My Puma Displays are circa 1972. This represents all patterns imported by Bruckmann in 1972.

Imported by Gutmann not Bruckmann. Maybe I'll get it right someday.

Those Puma displays are SWEET! ::drool:: ::tu:: ::ds::

Awesome Cowboy Bowie knife, smiling! ::groove::

Here's some of my German Pumas. The fixed blades are a '71 White Hunter, a recent Original Bowie, a 1993 Hunter's Pal and a new Python. Their stag is pretty nice and they are well-made knives with durable sheaths and good metal. I'm a fan! ::nod::

Here's a few pics of a vintage PUMA most likely late 1950's early 1960's before PUMA's dating system

As they say in Italy, Italians were eating with a knife and fork when the French were still eating each other. The Medici family had to bring their Tuscan cooks up there so they could make something edible
