*S-H48B* I sure carried this one for a long time before it ended up in the drawer. A Western knife in a perfect size.

I 'modified' mine and had a custom 'Quick Draw' made by a guy in town. I'll find them both for a shot.

Here is my H48B. I did not get a sheath with it, but the knife itself is unused, absolutely mint condition.

Mine is the S-H48A
I just double checked

The A has the fuller??

The blade on mine is 4 inches
OAL is 8 1/4"

A is sabre ground?
B is flat ground??

More pics. In this example the A has a blood groove. It is from 1978.

Main diff is 3.5' vs 4.5" blade. Trent - the B is flat ground.

Joel, you traded me a 648A and an 062 a while back. Don't member what you got. I think I got a nice old lure too.
