Sounds like a Mora, inexpensive but a solid value in a knife.
This is a $9 red wood handled one from Ragweed forge.

Here is a plastic handled version for $12.

You could do a whole lot worse than these for a lot more money. Solid workhorse knives IMO. Knives of this sort are available in many different blade lengths and handle materials, all good values. Batoning these through wood is a great technique.
