Large old ''bowie'' scout knife ?

Hello dear members,

I bought this massive knife,
44cm/17,3 inches long
Not expensiv it seems a little old and I liked the
Massive shape and the horn hilt.
There is a saw on the back of the blade.

-A kind of old survival-scout knife ?

-A composite large knife ?

made with a shortened sword blade : the tip has a strange shape and the back saw goes nearly to the tip.

Have you ever seen this kind of tip on old ''scout'' knives ?
I haven't received it so I can't post other pictures for the moment ( and haven't seen if there is a stamp on the blade...)
