This is an older and original Puma Protec II Liner-lock knife and was handmade in Solingen, Germany in 1979.

Date code on liner lock is: 53972 which means it was produced the 2nd half of 1979.

Lovely condition, unused and unsharpened.

We also have a few newer models available even though the knife has now been discontinued.
