    Default Amazing Puma!

    Well i was at my local Antique mall today i came across this.. not lookin to sell im just wondering ballpark what its worth? my heart almost stopped when i took it out of the case and it was mint! i mean it still has the original sticker on the back. im not sure if it has ever been used but i did the hair on arm test and it shave like a knife threw hot butter!

    Cant see in pic but blade says No.1938 4/8" derb




    those are finger prints on the blade not damage,

    So ballpark whats it worth? ill let every one know what i got it for after i see what you guys have to say! Thanks

    Really, I didnt know that was a rule. Not that i could give that info anyways. So if i find something and ask what its worth, thats against the forum guidelines?

    I have a similar puma, except it is a "Hohl". One of my best shavers and i'm not usually a fan of 4/8.

    Nice Find.

    For Clarity,
    We don't allow valuation discussions. We don't want folks flipping razors here from ebay.

    Thanks!

    I've got one of those too and it is a real nice shaver. Stainless and a real cool point on it. You made out like a bandit on that one.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    im afraid to shave with it, its in such good shape i think i might just put it in my display case. just wondering is this the same puma as the shoes? probably a dumb question.

    I'm quite sure they are unrelated to the shoes. Actually, that is a really just a guess, but I'd be very surprised if it's the same Puma.

    It is, of course, your choice as to what you do with the razor. I just think it would be a shame if a fine instrument like that is not put to use. With proper care, she'll remain in top shape, even with daily use.

    no such thing as stupid questions... just answers or something...
    dont think its the same company. altho they are both german... the knife (razor) company is from 1769 according to their site

    while puma shoes... still being german is from 1924 which is way earlier than i would have thought.

    very nice razor. i definately think you should shave with it.
