Eagle5US, Your welcome. Blade shape involved is based on the well known Puma hunter which usually came with a stag handle. Puma is a German firm. I don't recognize the manufacturers mark on the knife you've shown. The Puma hunters sell for just over 200 dollars American. Germany is diferant from the United States in that they are not required to mark imported goods with country of origin marks as we are here. This means they can have goods manufactured in any country and mark it made in Germany. This makes tracking harder. I don't know anything about the knife you show here. Is there a country of origin mark? Is there any reference to alloy of steel?
