Long shot - Winchester ?
I know New England knives pretty well but that pattern as others suggested looks like Kabar or Case or ??? - Not guesses and just a comment.. You sure the location is New England ??
... Only 6 states up here and most knives were either CT or MA - and I only mention it because many think NY is also New England but it is not...

Not a Robeson.
I think it looks a bit like a GEC #14 Boy's Knife, but it is older than GEC.

Yes Indeed !
Shapleigh/HDWE Co./St. Louis/MO.
There is "DE" in the center of the markings on the secondary blade.
