Camillus stumper!

I have been looking for any help concerning a blade I was given to settle a debt owed me.

It is a folder but also has a leather pouch. On one side of handle is a steer's head and rope, other side has rope and plaque for initials. It appears the handle is pewter.

The blade itself has markings, one side says Silver Sword and crossed swords, and the other side, this is on the "tang" area on both sides, says Camillus and under it is the number 47.

Anyone when it was made, going price. It's a very nice knife

The model #47 LOK-BACK knife known as the
"Longhorn" was made during the 1980's. The
handles were made of cast zinc and were
designed by Steve Powers. Total production
was quite low and this item was only offered
for a few years.
If you can provide me with a postal mailing
address I will send you a copy of the original catalog sheet.

Thanks for such a quick response!

I will give you my address, only don't go trying to send me free knives and stuff! ;-) j/k send me all the free stuff you feel I have to have as a Camillus owner <VBG>. Actually if I could get on Camillus mailing list for catalogs etc. that would be nice. I have yet to be able to get on camillusknives.com

Also am I being dense, or are there no prices on your website? If so where? I really need to have prices before even attempting to buy a knife
