Help ID and possibly date

I inherited this knife for Christmas from my father last year and am just trying to get an idea of what it is I have. I believe it is an old Bowie with two rat tail tangs.. ? Any information is greatly appreciated. I wanted to put a handle on it and maybe clean it up but don't want to potentially mess anything up. Thanks

Btw I am posting this from mobile and trying to attach photos, if they do not attach I will add them tonight when I get to work around 11 central

There are no photos yet and it may be a while before you can post photos due to security measures built into the forum software. Just hang around and participate in a few threads and the posting restriction will be removed pretty quickly .

Do you have any experience with knife making? If you don't then you would be wise to build a kit knife or two before working on your bowie. If you are serious about not wanting to screw it up you wouldn't want that bowie to be your first project ...
