According to the player lexicon, Kuhnt played at Lichtenberger SC 01 until 1922 , for SV Norden-Nordwest from 1922 to 1927 and ended his playing career at Eckernförder SV from 1927 . He was considered one of the best goalkeepers in Germany in the 1920s; he was characterized by his calm and serenity. With SV Norden-Nordwest, Kuhnt played in the two-part association or Oberliga Berlin-Brandenburg, which was the highest division at the time, was several times relay champion with the club and in 1922 association champion , reached the semi-finals in 1922 and the quarter-finals of the German finals in 1926 Mastery .

Kuhnt owes his only international game as a goalkeeper on August 31, 1924 in Berlin in front of 25,000 spectators against Sweden (1: 4) to irreconcilable clashes between 1.FC Nürnberg and SpVgg Fürth, with the result that the football players of these two clubs are not in the wanted to play the German national team and Kuhnt stood between the posts of the national team instead of the former German goalkeeper Heinrich Stuhlfauth from Nuremberg. According to reports at the time, the otherwise calm Werner Kuhnt could not shed his nervousness during the entire game. It was the first international match of the 1924/25 season and the DFB made six debutants, including Werner Kuhnt, who was 2 months before his 31st birthday.
