This is a very large Green River knife. It's o/a length is 16 1/2 " with a 11 1/2" blade which is still razor sharp. The wooden grip has a period repair which looks to be done with Telegraph Wire which suggests Indian use.

Being a newbie on the site, where DO you get all these cool photos?

Rollingb will probably tell you something different, but I think it's the things he used when he roamed the plains and mountains back in the 1830's.... :toast

Good looking sticker! My belt knife is a Russell Green River butcher knife with an 8-inch blade, and it is very similar (although it lacks that wonderful patina).That's what I carry too,... mine has the 5-pin grips, very similar to the one in the picture.
