It has always been part of the PUMA philosophy to manufacture products worthy of the magic name and the high demand of this city. For now, 250 years PUMA impresses with extra ordinary quality and workmanship.
We achieve this through a combination of traditional craftsmanship and the use of high-tech machinery and know how.
We utilize high tech in a way that increases the quality of our products and satisfies our customers, but we also show customers the traditional method of Solingen knife production in the third century.
Handwork is one aspect of production overseen by our technical staff, but more and more we are using the CNC machinery for parts of our products and this high precision helps us to be more efficient and competitive on price.
However, you will find a lot of products manufactured the old traditional way, especially hunting and commemorative knives.
PUMA places the importance of perfect workmanship, combined with the experience and ideas of our technical staff even higher than that of high-tech machinery. This is why after full production each knife is checked and its quality controlled by our staff personally.
PUMA is one of the leading companies in production of hunting, sporting, outdoor and fishing knives.
