i have a Puma White hunter, and its a great knife, but iam getting tired of its rubberhabdle , what can i do get that handle away and whqat is nice to put back on it as the replacement for the handle that was there to start with ?

If you look in this thread you will see Jeffery Denmark's redone White Hunter.

Stag slabs would do nicely

I have re-done two of the White Hunters and it is very easy project. I use walnut scales that are epoxied and pinned using existing holes in the tang, then shape and finish as you would a gunstock. Finish with course checkering on the finger side.
Turns out better than Puma's bone handles IMO.

Ilike the point design in the puma white hunter but you need a bigger grip for skinning and for combat when i advise clients that want a hog hunter, i always remember them that the handle must be big ,thats very important if you will use your knife in pig sticking or for knife defense ,i like kraton ,but stag horn is beautiful ,remember to oversize its grip its too small to practical use .Juan

what should i use to loosen the rubberhandle with?

i have ordered a Gerbe folderknife aswell, can never have to much knives, but the new Pumas theyre fine so ill get some of those aswell this year.

Do you happen to have acess to a bench mounted belt sander or better yet a square wheel? That's what I use.

yes i have, a new project is on the way.

Mr. Rigby, if you have a White Hunter with a rubber handle then you might have a White Hunter II and not a White Hunter. Or is it made with both rubber and stag handles? They are not the same size, not the same steel either. Still, a good craftsman can make some nice grips for you.

oh, they arnt? well i better levet that alone and get a another one, unfortunately Puma was sold out for their Jubileums model with the damacened blade on it.

The Puma White Hunter 50th Anniversary model is currently on sale in the USA for $3,000. The White Hunter sells for about $325 in the UK and the White Hunter II for about $120, also in the UK. If you Google it you can see the differences.

i have seen two of the new models from Puma, and iam going to order them, they arent white hunters, but they will be fine for very much different use.

If you really want a damascus blade you might want to consider the Capstick African. Follow the link:

That was abeautiful knife, but we have avery stupid rule over here, for a item ordered from abroad must cost 20 US equvivalent to norwegian currency without having paying tax on it , but ill sse what can be done with itm for it was a beautiful knife, and i got "Sands of Silence" by Capstick yesterday and iam reading it now where he used his knife .
