Not sayin’ it is, but….
Is this possible? A knife made between 1908 and 1921 that looks this good?

These show up every so often on eBay with less common tang stamps. Same blade configuration and build quality. They look like Queen-made knives from the past 30 or so years.
I have one with a Paxton and Gallagher tang stamp that I paid $5.50 for on an eBay Buy It Now.
Nice mint EDC for the money, but not a collection piece given that it's not marked as a reproduction.

Re: Not sayin’ it is, but….
hard to explain, but notice the "margins" between the tang stamp and the edges of the tang... consider how close the stamps on older knives typically came to the edges of the tangs, then look at how the "margins" on newer blade tangs are typically set up. Who knows - maybe this one has been hidden in a sock drawer for the last 100 years

Wilbert Cutlery Co. did not actually exist as a cutlery company, but was a store brand for Sears & Roebuck.
