Goins says Wade & Butcher operated from 1818 to present. With the big kick on the secondary pen blade, I would say it dates to the early 1930s or before.

Knice knife Gary. Great scales
I'd agree with Paladin, it has a 1920ish look to it IMO

Nice old knife!
Here's some pics of the one I have in stag - not sure of the date on this one, either. It has "XCD" stamped on the spear blade.
