Puma Fixed Blade Question

Guys,
One of my recent acquisitions is a Puma Fixed Blade with this on the blade: PUMA F'O'RSTERNICKER / NACH FREVERT. I have been unable to get a translation out of google or bing. Anybody have an idea as to the meaning or translation of this? Seen this knife before?
Tom (TPK), over in Germany, any clues?
Any help will be appreciated!

I called Puma and they gave me classicpumaknives.com . I went there and found that this is a 'huntsman's' knife. Thanks to any who have put in time trying to translate but I think I have answered my own question.

My little dictionary says that forster (with the umlaut) means 'forester.' Thus, a forester's knife.

I'm guessing here but I suspect a literal translation is 'forester' and that Puma uses that for the less than literal 'huntsman'.
Here is a link to the info I found. https://classicpumaknives.com/?p=5498 ...
