Puma Knife: Set of 4 Special Edition 90's 4 Star Folding Lock Blade Knives wth Custom Corelon Handles
WOW, Rare set of 4 PUMA 4-Star single blade lock back knives, with Coloured Corelon Handles, matching warranties and correct matching boxes.
*Please read full description and see detailed images which form part of the description
This is the only set we have ever come across and there is not much on the internet about this set.
Puma Germany made a few limited edition sets with coloured Corelon handles in the 90's which were snapped up when launched by collectors around the world so these rarely come up. Sold as a set only.
This 4 Star knife was a Puma short run SFO (special factory order) made by Puma in Solingen, Germany in 1992/3.
We believe and to the best of our knowledge, that these knives were delivered by the factory to the renowned knife designer Michael Prater who designed and installed the Coloured Corelon mix handles at his shop in the USA.
These knives were then sold mainly in the USA
Only a very limited run of these 4 Star folding knives were produced.
Condition: Almost mint at 98-99% in original boxes with correct item numbers and matching warranty for each boxed knife.
We have left these knives in untouched condition and a couple have some minor age marks with these marks being able to be polished off if required including the brass which again, we have left untouched
