The design of the new "rüdemann" interception knife from our IP series came from Philipp Tassius, whose great-uncle Walter Tassius, forester and welding dog handler, had already developed the original "PUMA Rüdemann" in 1975. The aim of the modernized further development was to incorporate the current requirements of wild boar hunting into the changes. Functionality was also the focus this time, because the "cold weapon" must be in the hand, as if knife and hand were one unit, especially with defensive wild boar. The knife must be heavy, but not too heavy, and have the important properties of stability and sharpness. The blade should also not be fully sharpened on both sides. Therefore, only the tip is sharpened on both sides to enable rapid penetration into the game's body. The blade length is 19 cm with a total knife length of almost 33 cm. The strong blade, bulging in the front third, increases the oxygen supply when intercepting and enables the piece to be released quickly. The new "rüdemann" comes with a high-quality, custom-fit belt sheath made from saddle leather.

PUMA IP - an international success story
The international production of PUMA - PUMA IP - is based on the successful collaboration between PUMA Solingen with selected Spanish partner-manufacturers.
Design, production supervision, and quality control is performed by PUMA, the knives are made in Spain. The result is a balanced range of knives for hunting and trekking activities in the best price-performance ratio.
The Mediterranean influence can clearly be seen in many knives. Apart from classic staghorn scales used by PUMA, many of the IP knives are provided with wooden scales - in many cases olive wood is used. This rugged, southern European wood is extremely suitable, as it is very tough and durable.
This series offers hunters and friends of nature traditional blades in a new look at attractive prices.
