It ahs three blade and the back side of the blade reading Camillus NY has a numeric number that looks as if it is 85, anyone who can provide further info on this knife.

Camillus made a #85 stockman pattern in the 1950s.
The closed length of the knife was 3-3/16". They listed the handles as "Agate Pyroxylin" which was basically a butter & molasses type celluloid.
