I fixed the 2 issues with the PUMA Gabelscheide. With 1 drop of Hoppes Gun oil, turning fork "tight to loose", over and over, a drop of more oil and "tight to loose", until it went all the way in.

Then I took off the top metal sheath fitting which was loose. The glue had let go and the metal fitting was pushed down.

I then cleaned the green verdigris under the fitting and reglued the metal fitting to the top of the sheath.

The knife now looks right, and the fork also goes completely into the sheath on the top and the bottom.

My PUMA with Gabelscheide now has no issues and maybe original after all. Wunderbar.

Here is the link for Classic Puma knives, look under "MODELS" for the "TRAVEL SET" with the knife and fork-sheath. https://classicpumaknives.com/new-to-website/
