This is a beautiful and original Puma 4 Star folding lock blade knife with a really nice Scrimshawed handle in original wooden display box
The Knife is mint new condition and a real rarity. The box has a couple of marks on the top edge which can be seen in the detailed images. We have left it as-is but the small scratches would probably come out and we have left the Brass in original condition which would polish out if required.
It was made in the 1st Qtr 1978 with a date code of 12871 and is currently 48 years old
For a knife that is over 48 years old it is in mint condition, unused, unsharpened and totally original.
Blade Length: 7.5cm
Total Length: 17.5cm
