The PUK Brand
“PUK“ is a registered brand name which is exclusively reserved for saws from our production. Our saws have had that name since the 1930s, following the Scandinavian legend of the friendly goblin Puck who lives in the attic and is always at his landlord’s service – such as our saws. During registration, however, the “c” was forgotten, so Puck ultimately became the globally renowned brand “PUK”.

An old unit of measurement common in the saw industry.
A gross refers to a counting measure for quantifying quantities by their number.
A dozen is 12 pieces.
A gross is 12 dozen,
so to say 12 x 12 pieces = 144 pieces.
