Prospector

PUMA Prospector, the model number is 42 0677. The handles are made from jacaranda. The guarantee control number is 40482. This indicates the knife was hand made in Solingen, Germany in the 2nd half of 1984.

This knife measures 6 3/8" overall with a 2 3/4" blade. The blade is etched: HANDMADE - 667 PUMA PROSPECTOR - NEW STAINLESS KEEN CUTTING STEEL.

The knife features a PUMA Germany Jacaranda Wood handle with three brass pins. The handles are gorgeous with a lot of character to the grain.

The knife includes the "PUMA Proof Mark" on the blade: a small dot or ping on the blade was made with a diamond pointed needle, part of the Rockwell blade quality testing. The Rockwell sticker is also still intact.
