Welcome Bill, I hope you enjoy yourself here.

Welcome to iKC!

Bill, I wish I could help you with your Puma knife but unfortunately I know nothing about them.  But I am sure you will enjoy yourself here.  This is THE place for a serious knife collector.  And I am sure there is someone on the site that knows about Puma knives.

Bill, Welcome to IKC - any friend of Ron's is a friend of mine.

I am honored to be your friend, Bill! Thanks for adding me!

Hey there, Bill, and welcome to iKC! Great to have you with us. Hope you get your Puma question answered, but I think you'll find that with a bit of patience, and the great people here, someone will find you the answers you seek! Thanks for the add, and hope to see more of you. Join us in the chat room sometime!

Take care!

Bill

I know of the Woodsmans Pal but have never had one.  Here are some links to info about it.  The third one may be more the info you are looking for.

Hi Bill, I take it your avatar pic is of the Puma knife in question. It looks to be in nice shape and condition, few scratches and not sharpened with good sheath. It was probably made after 1950 does it have W. Germany on it anywhere ? I think a lot of the scout knives were sold as souvenir type knives and therefore were not heavily used.   The larger blades are 8.10 and 12" . On ebay with good pictures this might bring 125 to 160. The extra AF logo adds a little to the value but not as much as one would expect. These are scarce items and if two collectors want it who knows ? Carl

Happy Birthday Bill!
