chinese made pumas come out of some company in Oregon, the puma companys prime distributer in the US something about a court case forcing the german home company to allow him to have knives made in china with the puma logo, the home company isn't very happy with him they were proud of the fact they made thier knives in Germany who manufacters the best steel, figures a liberal state like Oregon to screw up a good thing, something about not being able to sell German knifes cause their too expensive, so when you buy a puma make sure you buy a German one ,they are made out of better steel, chinese steel is mostly made out of recycled steel (Old chevys and scrap),the chinese are trying that with their copy cat motorcycles too but are about to get shut down because they are unsafe.
