Large Fixed blade with mysterious origins

[bokhok99]

I recently acquired this bad boy, but honestly the seller just a had a bunch of knives with no background information. There are no markings that tell me who the maker is or origin. At first I thought maybe Pakistan, but still unclear. The handle may be G-10 or Micarta, i lean toward G-10. Any thoughts? It actually, to me has a Kiku Matsuda vibe, but not his markings or typical blade finishes. Would love any insight you may have!!!

Definitely giving off Kiku Matsuda vibes but without any other provenance, I’d have to assume Pakistan type manufacturing. I believe the scales are a Micarta type due to the canvas appearance of the layers.

My XRF-Vision tells me that is 420 steel.

Probably a copy of a Kiku Matsuda knife, the lines just aren't there.
