I have a 915 Puma Emperor knife, I'm thinking of selling it or trading it. It's in good condition, but has had a sloppy sharpening job done to it.I don't have the box or sheath for it.

Can somebody give me a estimated value?

this was one of pumas largest stag folders & was always marked with the rockwell test dot. in the 70s few companies could match the quality of these lovlies. best market would be puma collectors & my guess if not too scrathed would be 150.00. of course i have'nt kept up with current prices.--cranky72

Pictures would go a long ways to be able to give you a decent answer.

I picked up a used Puma Prince a few years ago for just over $50. It all comes down to condition and rarity. Not a super rare knife, so condition is the word for the day with it.

looks like previous owner was trying to create a thinner bevel at the tip.i certainly do this with most of my knives since they have a fat bevel at the tip which doesnt match the bevel in main part of blade. i guess this practice is to give more strength at the tip but experienced users do'nt use their knives to pry. i do'nt think this a a major price reducer except for collectors wanting a mint piece. cranky72
