Puma Fans?
Anyone here love Puma Knives? I have a sweet looking redbone stockman on the way on order. They're Solingen Germany made, so it's gotta be good right?

Re: Puma Fans?
Germany has very lax laws around importing goods and the use of "Germany" in the markings.
A knife can be 90% or more made offshore and then sent to Germany for say, the final buffing and the knife can still be marked "Germany" and possibly "Made in Germany".
There is a thread in BRL forum at BF in which poster "Germania" explains the German import laws. He is a German academic who researches old documents to do with the cutlery industry in Germany. His posts are accurate however the ones i refer to were made about 8 years ago so things might have changed.
