Description from the 2000 catalog, for both the C48 Tim Wegner:
Tim Wegner combines knifemaking expertise and hunting experience in his first collaboration with Spyderco. The result is an everyday companion that meets the specific needs of the sportsman. Partnered in a drop-point style, the sturdy hollow-ground blade provides excellent edge retention and has just enough skinning curve to be effective for dressing large game. Cross-texturing above the Spyderco Trademark Round Hole allows for accurate thumb placement and precise edge control. The handle is form of premium G-10 for resistance to slipping and weather resistance. It feels comfortable in all grip positions and incorporates a strong Linerlock. The lanyard hole at the end of the handle offers extra security in deep snow or around water. This ligthweight cutting tool will do what is asked of it and more.
