That’s a fine looking example. Love the mini band in the middle. Very classy. Interesting pattern to the pinning. I wonder why
That wide band on your last post w/ pic is very classy as well . Really like the wide band. ! And was wondering about the pin pattern on the 4 line Camillus myself . Have not seen that before on smaller pocket knives .

Here's an old Keen Kutter gents whittler, shadow. 2 7/8" closed.
That band must have helped use up those smaller pieces pearl.

Very nice Keen Kutter !! Read somewhere that was the case with the bands . It makes sense in helping to use up smaller pieces.

That knife has a great shape, and the MOP has a lot of fire. Nice! I have always suspected that the band was so that the small pieces could be used, and that if a piece cracked when it was pinned then it was easier to replace.
