Well-Known Puma Knives – History Of Hunting Knives

Puma knives from Solingen, have an impressive history! Puma-Werk of Solingen, Germany, actually originated in the water-powered mill workshop of Johann Wilhelm Lauterjung on the banks of the Wupper River. Lauterjung was able to register his very first trademark with the help of the Solingen Master Cutlers Guild way back in 1769. They produced hunting knives, swords, razors, shears and other metal products with the then-current technology of natural sharpening stones and hydraulic water power. In 1855, Nathaniel Lauterjung brought the company to the German town of Solingen in North Rhine-Westphalia. A few years later, Puma Knives began another factory to increase exports.

By 1900, the company was officially called “PUMA-Werk, Lauterjung und Sohn”. When World War II started, the factory was placed under the government to produce war supplies which lasted until the end of the war when the company returned to manufacturing civilian pocket and household knives. The company began to focus only in high quality outdoor, hunting and fishing knives when a certain Oswald von Frankenberg und Ludwigsor have joined the firm in the year 1953. He then worked with Germans and various nationalities in creating knives that have earned international awards and recognition.

Among the famous hunting knives on the market today is the Puma Universal Jagtaschenmesser, which was developed in collaboration with Puma Knives and the former head of the Rominten state hunting ground and also, President of the International Bloodhound Federation. Puma currently seeks to focus on five categories of knives for the consumers; hunting, trekking, hunting folders, sporting folders, fishing knives, and most knife accessories as well, such as sheaths, sharpening stones and pouches. Puma Knives is famous for etching the name, number and year of the manufacture on the blade, which makes older knives as highly collectible items. Puma knives are known for being more expensive than the other brands, but it is due to the fact that they hand-make each blade and use only the highest grade steel and materials.

The Bowie and Damascus knives are two of the most popular Puma brands. The Bowie is 11 inches long with a 6 1/9 inch long blade. The elegant handle is stag horn and it has a single finger guard, very much like the traditional American frontier knives.
