Very nice mate!
I have no knowledge of these. Were they issued or privately used?
Cheers
Private Purchase. Just like the Randals,Gerbers and other quality knives people bought as gifts for their sons before going on deployment. Rich A. in Pa.

So they are date stamped?
I remember seeing these for sale in the 80's but i didn't know they went back so far.
They are dated by the serial number. PUMA was started in 1769 by Johann Wilhelm Lautenjung when the trade mark was registered with the Knife Makers Guild in Solingen and opened his shop on the Wupper river. Rich A. in Pa.

I knew it was an old company, I just remember the knife design from years ago.
I have a PUMA Dress Bayonet.
One of the oldest trademarks in the world.
Is there any proof, (evidence), that this Puma knife shown by you was actually used/carried by a soldier in NAM?by rra227
No. Only what I was told. Rich A. in Pa.
