Hello all, first time poster, somewhat decent-time lurker. Just interested in knowing if anyone can help me ID this knife? I picked it up off of a traveling Indian knife peddler on a whim, because the bladed design intrigued me. There aren't any hallmarks of any kind that I can see, though. It seems to be a cheapo, but it still has me rather curious. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

We cannot see your image.

BTW, what is a "traveling Indian Peddler"?

There, it should be viewable now! And good question, haha. I have no idea myself, but he was quite the interesting person. Even gave me a random palm reading and tried to "see my future."
 
It looks loosely based on a Kershaw Boa, based on blade and handle shape, with some SOG highlights. Most likely it's a cheap copy made in China or Pakistan, as you are probably aware. Do a search for the Kershaw boa if you like the design and want to see the original. You may have to pay up to 10x more $$$, but it will be worth it.
 
The blade grooves kinda looks like an interpretation of some Boker ceramic knife blades but the outline & scales is definitely Kershaw.

Hahaha, I thought those "traveling Indians" only existed here. One guy insisted on telling my future and I said "if you can tell the future, why couldn't you tell that I wouldn't let you tell mine?".
 
Looks like a reproduction of SOG Vulcan with grooves on the blade. Handle is definitely of Vulcan
