Please bear with me I dont know all the proper terms and everything. I have a knife thats not real old i won at a pheasants forever dinner it is made by camillus its a big lockback with shiny polished bolsters its overall length when open is 8 1/2" im not sure how to measure the blade length so please forgive me but the actual length from tip to bolster is 3 3/4" and the cutting edge length is 3 1/4" the handle is a yellow bone like material with "pheasants forever" engraved into it and a pheasant walking engraved underneath. the blade has a hunting scene engraved into it and in the engraving a barn, pheasant and hunter are all done in gold I think? its pretty detailed. at the base of the blade (I think its called the tang?) its stamped camillus and underneath that its stamped new york and under that USA. on the other side its stamped 886. it comes in a fake leather like box with the pheasants forever logo embossed in gold on it. its in a velvety display with a brass or copper medallion with the pheasants forever logo on it. I dont remember how long ago i got it but it was a while ago. i went to 2 pheasants forever dinners that year and the first one had it for silent auction I wanted it but it went for way more than i had then i went to the other and figured id give it a shot i bought one raffle ticket and imagine my surprise when i won! its a nice knife and i have lots of pics but i post them but if someone wants to see them pm me and ill email them to u im lookin for a value on this and maybe how many were made? as well as if this is a regular pattern i could buy somewhere because i would love to find one for a user thats not so fancy. thanx so much I appreciate any help you may be able to give and again i apologize if this is in the wrong place
