This knife turned out resembling something like a half sized pirate cutlass. The blade was forged from an old Nicholas file, still has a few grid marks left just past the guard. What knife type does it remind you of?

---specs---

Steel: File (W 1/2 most likely)
OAL: 16.5"
Width: 1.25"
Thickness: 3/8" distal taper
Bevel: Double Flat grind
Guard: Forged 3/8" square stock
Handle: Dark Walnut. The butt was turned on the lathe while the main portion of the handle still has some shaping to finish it up and its needs to be sealed.
