I have four older Pumas, a '69 Hunters Friend, '66 Hunter's Pal, '80 Trail Guide, and a model called a Nicker that is basically just a presentation grade Hunter's Pal and it came originally with a super set/ a huge thing called a Waidsblatt. It and the old Pal are far and away my favorites because of size and ease of sharpening, even though the Nicker is stainless. I have never been able to put a truly quality edge on the Trail Guide but I'm sure that translates to user error. The Hunter's Friend is a great camp knife but a little on the large side for caping/field dressing. All in all, they are my favorite knives and I own many. I think it's because, like Jock, they were tops on my youthful wish list.
