What style of knife would you call this?

[Bob Denman]

Joseph Bandeko I'd call it a very nice knife. Nicely done, sir. What's the steel?

I agree: it's pretty dang cool!
No matter what you call it...

I found this video, and the first half of it discusses blade shapes...

Also looks a bit like a 'fighter' to me.
Cool looking blade !!

Camping, harpoon blade, upswept for skinning - campoonskinner.

The shape (apart from no clip point) reminds me of the Ontario Marine Raider.

 

[NPT]

Yeah, I'd buy that...Would like to see the blade marked, and I'd call the blade a bowie...

 

[USMCPOP]

I'd call it Mr. Stabby-Slicey. Beautiful shape.

I watch all those videos from the KnifeCenter. It's official. I'm a knife nerd (move over Larrin and make room on the sofa).

Back to the OP's knife: it's got enough size and drop to be a chopper, but the scales have little scoops (I forget what you call those) for a pinch grip like on a smaller knife. So, it's a little confusing.

Great looking knife !

But , "Camp Poon " might not be the best possible name .

Yah I’m working on ways to do that, but for now I’ve been putting my brand name on the sheath.
here’s a photo of it in the sheath. (I took this photo with my phone so I apologize for the quality of that)

 

[Mossyhorn]

It sure looks like a fighter to me. Great job on that one.

 

[Zulus]

I think it is harpoon

mixed breed

If it were a folder, I'd say you need to open it a little further for the locking mechanism to engage...

Half-Cocked Drop Point? Drunken Bowie? Leading Drop Point? Inside Straight? I'm here all week...
