Puma #52 ~ Best Puma Steel ~ Black Linen Micarta
This was a blade restore and rescale that was sent to me by one of our members.
The blade was completely restored and brought back to life with a high mirror showroom shine. Mojo at work.
Blade has a gorgeous notch and jimps on both the top side of the tang and bottom notch.
The original butterscotch scales were ruined due to a crack. I was able to retrieve the original inlay from the scales. I choose black linen micarta for this manly looking blade and G10 2x2 layered wedge.
Blade has a beautiful balance and besides being sturdy a hell, it will continue to live on for generations to come.
Enjoy!
Brand: Puma #52
Grind: Full Hollow
Width: 6/8
Total weight: 2.0 Oz
Total cutting edge: 3.0 inches
Scales: Black Linen Micarta - G10 Black/Tan 2x2 wedge
Pins/Washers: Nickel Silver/SS

Man Max, that's slick as an oiled stripper! Talk about a new life. that shot from the backside of the blade showing the "made in germany from puma steel" is too cool. if it were mine I'd store that one with that side showing.
