Most of the time I've seen it called a three backspring cattle knife (I assume yours has three backsprings). When it comes in the two bladed version I see it called a Eureka jack.
By the way, most of the ones I see are only 3 5/8".

Very similar to what I've seen called a Norfolk pattern cattle knife.
