Thats a nice Puma transitional ricasso knife you've got there
The Puma 1938 transistional can be found with the nice early nickel/steel hilts and with the Motto on the blade, like this one.
Nice nickel rivetts.
The 1939 Puma has the same blade, but lacks the Motto and often seen with a Zinc hilt.

This one has wear where you want it to be, (on the hilt where the snap is)
Scabbard leather has some wear and looks a bit dry, but the paint is good.
Pity the tip has a been sharpened, its a bit blunt.
Overal a nice original Puma!

About prices you might take a look at Lakesidetraders, Johhnson or Wittmann.
In Europe this Puma will do +/- 375 euro

Cheers,
Ger
