Help with origin of knive

Hi Folks, This knife was purchased at an estate sale.
I am curious as to the origin and approximate age of this knife.
I suspect it is of Chilean make .... Stacked hilt and triangular tang extension on base of blade. It is a well made, formidable knife and shows signs of daily use.
I've been hunting around the interwebbs for a couple of months and have only found one knife almost identical to this one on this website (2005 daveA).
I'd truly appreciate any insight as to its origin and age.
With respect,
Al Beausoleil
