Based on thread hits here with no response you might wanna put this in 'General Knife Discussion" forum gringo.

HI!
Depending on the way it is stamped will date it. If it says just Northfield it is after 1930, if it has UN-X-LD it is 1880's to 1919 If it is curved or not will help too. NEED a pic of the tang to be sure.
