I hunted a couple of times with someone who used a Puma White Hunter.
He used the rounded part of the blade to open up a deer's belly. He kept the curve razor sharp and he could field dress a deer quicker than you could imagine.
It would not be my choice as a hunting knife, either, but this man was an expert with it.
A friend of his asked me to make one for him. That is it in the lousy picture.
154 CM steel, brass guard, Rosewood scales.
