Anyone know what type of knife this is? It is in really rough shape and has no visible markings. It probably did at one point in time but the bottom of the blade is rusted pretty bad.

I agree that it started out as either the PAL 36 or an unmarked copy of that knife that has shown up from time to time. The original blade geometry has been heavily modified on this one. Heres an image of the PAL 36 I pulled off the internet for comparison.

IMHO, when looking closely at the fuller, the coil, and the pommel of the different knives, I'm leaning towards the knife in the OP being a PAL 36 copy.
