Puma Solingen Stiletto Pattern Folding Knife, Stag Handle
Puma of Solingen produced this small folding "Stiletto" pattern in the style of Italian dagger-folders (a symmetric spear-point blade and a cross-guard bolster) but built as a traditional slip-joint, not a spring-assisted switchblade. It carries the maker's trademark on the blade and the pattern name on the pommel cap.
Genuine stag scales are secured with brass pins between nickel-silver bolsters.
Note a prior regrind along one side of the blade spine, reflected in the price. Mechanically sound overall.

Condition Notes
Blade has been partially reground along one side of the spine at some point in its life -- a deliberate alteration, not ordinary wear. Otherwise the knife has a strong, positive snap with no looseness in the joint.
