Anyone got a Puma Universal Jagdmesser 959, they want to send to Australia? I want to buy one preferably an older model.

FlatshooterLOL...i bought 3 of them already!
I caught the bug.
Thanks for the suggestion anyway.
A SUPER tool!

I've only got one!

Does anybody know what the number in the hexagon means?

Mine is 800.

ozhunterI love the No4 which has no bird hook.

FlatshooterThe 800 designates the plaque is silver...just like on silver jewellry!
Great knives, i prefer the earlier version to yours above...i.e. the 3 liner 959, they were slimmer in profile, same functions, 1 less brass liner, as originally designed by Mr Frevet!

I should have known that!
My 959 is about an '82 or '83.
She may be a bit chubby...... but I like her fine!

tomo577FLATSHOOTER -
neat looking knife. what did they cost you ?

pichon1If the number was 100 that would denote pure silver, hence the 800 means 80% silver.Generally alloyed with nickel.

FlatshooterThe knife in the pic isnt one of mine, its a late model...i.e 1975 onwards, you can tell from the inscription on the blade. It also designates it as a 4 brass liner version. If someone wants to forward me their email address id be happy to post them a pic if they can host for the forum members to see...sorry im not that techy. I have a nice pic i took the other day of my 959, 953 and 941...all in a nice cedar box.
