Is this a Navaja knife?

"Navaja" in Spanish is synonymous with folding knife, so yes, your knife is literally a navaja.

However, if what you are really asking is whether the knife is Spanish or not, that is another matter entirely, and judging by its general appearance I am inclined to say no. Looks like a rustic peasant's knife made somewhere else.
