I see them on ebay regularly. They usually run between 75-100 bucks,NIB. The Wegner Jr. usually runs a little higher in price. There is a C-48 on ebay right now with a high bid of 44 bucks with 2 days left to bid.

I picked up one of the Wegner Jr's a couple of years ago and it has become one of my favorite knives. Feels great in the hand, and the ATS-34 blade really holds an edge.

I always wished I had they were great little knives.Boozoo Chavis said:
blade tech makes the wegner now, actually i think it looks as good or better than the spydie version(nothing against the spyderco version though), esp w/the CF handles, IIRC they run $150 or so new, same thing except a oval rather than round hole, and IIRC the steel is S30V, and the available CF handles. i have seen a couple of these for sale in the for sale forum, IIRC they were around $100 or so. they look nice but have never actually handled one, pics only, but blade tech is usually pretty good.
Since obtaining the BladeTech version, I' ve retired my Spyderco model. The Spydie model had a solid almost full length rear spacer and made the folder quite on the heavy side. It' s handles were drilled for right handed tip up carry only. And the single finger groove was a bit large for one finger to rest properly or it was too small for 2 fingers to choke up against! The Pro Hunter model from BladeTech is a featherweight in comparison, has 4 position pocket clip carry capability, and a large guard for the finger to rest up against rather than a large finger groove to control YOUR hand. The partially flat ground S30 V steel on the ProHunter was surprisingly easy to sharpen and holds a very good edge compared to common stainless steels such as ATS34 and 154CM. G- 10 or CF scales available. Both Spydie and BladeTech folders however, are 2 of the very few productions that I' ve ever used that really feels and fits right into the hands.
