Puma 5/8 Restorable ?
Hi All,
Any ideas on this blade. I know Puma's but the blade seems to have an unusual grind (check near the tang). Do the numbers mean anything to anyone ?.
This is the best pic available. Looks like 1/4 ground ?.
Advert below.
Cheers
Gary

In original case that is made from a plastic material that looks like wood.

That is a very attractive razor! Frosted blade with etching and an unusual grind. Very nice.

Yeah that's what I thought. I'm trying to work out the grind ?. I guess the numbers must mean something.

Nope, that's all I've got ToxIK. Might take a gamble if it's cheap enough.
