The PUMA hunter's companion is a balanced and robust all-round knife, which has been newly released to celebrate 250 years of company history. Through a survey with hunters, outdoor enthusiasts and knife lovers, we wanted to know which earlier PUMA model was particularly popular and deserved a new edition. The hunter's companion was selected. The blade thickness is 3.7 mm and the blade length 107 mm, so the hunter's companion is legal to carry. The distinctive thumb rest ensures a safe pressure spread during cutting work and the stag's horn grip lies comfortably in the hand. Convince yourself about the PUMA classic.

Hervorragendes Messer. Design, Stahl, Horn, Verarbeitung 1A.
Hervorragendes Messer. Design, Stahl, Horn, Verarbeitung 1A. Die Kommentare zum Schärfen kann ich nicht nachvollziehen. Ich schleife mit einer Tormek und ziehe mit Paste auf Leder ab (keine Zauberei / Den richtigen Winkel beachten und fertig). Das Teil lässt sich nicht nur vergleichsweise schnell schärfen sondern auch auf eine sehr gute Gebrauchsschärfe mit ordentlicher Schnitthaltigkeit bringen. Ich führe das Messer nun seit einigen Jahren und habe meinem Sohn kürzlich eins nachgekauft. Das Design insbesondere mit der Daumenauflage ist für meine jagdliche Tätigkeiten super geeignet. Wenn ich überhaupt etwas zu bemängeln hätte dann, dass die Scheide etwas fester schliessen könnte und ich die klinge gern minimal dünner hätte. Aber das wäre dann schon customizing. Für den Preis in der Qualität 10 Punkte.
great knife but I think it needs improvement
After two hunting seasons I review this product. The knife is produced with top of the range materials, it is very beautiful and the shape accompanies the hand very well in the processing of game remains. However I cannot give the maximum score for two reasons: the first is that I find it not easy to sharpen, and above all it was delivered to me not well sharpened from the factory. The second reason concerns the sheath: the leather obviously tends to take the shape of the knife and the result is that there is a risk of losing it, therefore a strap would be needed, possibly with a button, so that the knife is safe but quick to take in case of need. However, the product really deserves a lot and with a different sheath it would deserve the maximum score.
