*Handmade* ‘PUMA White Hunter’ 6377 Hunting Knife and Original Leather Scabbard. 21167. - 21167
This iconic knife was the result of a collaborative effort by PUMA and the East Africa Professional Hunter’s Association. It was first introduced in 1956 and set the standard by which all other hunting knives were measured for the next 50 years. Otto von Frankenburg, the husband of Renate Lauterjung, a decendant of Franz Lauterjung was in charge at PUMA .It was von Frankenburg’s influence in the company that transitioned the company into a comprehensive hunting knife maker. He enlisted the help of a friend, Walter Frevert, who was the Head of Forestry in Germany. Both men were active hunters. Designed by Puma and field tested in Africa, the locals gave it the name White Hunter, named after the European and North American hunters who came often to Africa on Safari. Many of these knives were often presented as gifts to the guides and trackers by the hunters at the end of the hunt. The double edged knife is made from one piece of steel with 2 serrated edges. The polished blade is 15 ¼ cm in length and is lovely condition with only minor signs of use. The hardwood grips are held with 3 brass studs with a lanyard hole and are unmarked. The blade is laser etched; 6377 Handmade PUMA WHITE HUNTER Genuine PUMASTER Steel W.Germany.
