Just arrived today, Puma SGB Bowie with smooth white bone handles. So far I'm tickled with it.
I bought this as a user, meaning I fully intend to use this knife. Not sure for what, but it will be with me on whatever adventures I have this summer,

The pistol is a Pietta knock off of a 1851 Navy in 36 caliber. If I remember correctly it uses .375 balls.

The stamp is very worn and can`t make it out. Faith is marked on the blade

If it isn’t too much trouble, could you post some photos of it and maybe give some dimensions?

That is the same type that I tried to emulate in my build and is my favorite style of Bowie by far. ::nod::

Here’s my attempt:
