I have made a clasp knife the hound and hare one, looking at this one I would say it is a clasp knife judging from the side angle and the curve of the body, however it was possibly cast in wax from a generic mould and the slot was then melted into the wax before covering in clay and then finished in bronze. I think someone forgot to do this 
just about to fit blade then #*it #*it #*it. The iron corrosion could come from imputitys in the clay used in the casting it my have not been cleaned completely seeing the gaf made. Robert I would do this as a clasp knife and put the slot in. I do like these knifes and the many subject matters used to achieve the handle.
