Medici knives

[Vpetrell]

Anyone know anything about these knives? Couldn't find much on this online. I have an older one my dad gave me. It's the Medici P210563CD. Not sure if that's the model number or what. Also says 103/RC on it.

Any info is great. Thanks!

Hmmm, my first thought when opening the thread was "I hope this knife was made in Florence, Italy."

It looks like a knife was made in Solingen by Puma. Medici is the name of the knife model.

Thanks for the response. I didn't even see the puma logo on it until I was informed. Thanks again for the info. Woulda been nice if it was an Italian made

The '103' on the blade indicates the knife was made in the first half of 2003 (see link below). The 'RC' indicates it was hardness-tested (Rockwell C scale) at the factory, though they never show or indicate what the hardness value was, unfortunately.

I have a 2004 Puma Medici in stag (model# 210563; marked '104/RC'), BTW.
