Is it China made? Where was it produced?

Stubia is a european manufacturer of different high quality metal components. I have learned of them from using their mountaineering equipment which is some of the best made.

Would this do well for removing wood off large staves for bow making?

Yes - I'd call it a medium duty drawknife. It will give you much better control than a heavier duty knife as you near the final shape of your bow. You will probably still want to use a spokeshave for the final shaping.
