Wait...this is about "need"?
Man, that #15 in barehead smooth bone sure is a beauty.

Only when I'm trying to explain the arrival of the latest GEC tube to my Better Half...
Maybe, maybe not, but this knife is waiting for its smooth white bone #15 friend:

Hi Corso, yes, that's how they all are. i'm sure someone more knowledgeable than me can explain why!
Smithhammer - two stunners today!
I've noticed that this can be common on many GEC knives (stag&wood in particular), short/recessed pins. I'm not very keen on it myself and have filled in the 'holes' with brass tubing, sanded down etc. WHY GEC does this more than anybody I don't know either. For instance, Queen knives I have in wood have perfectly flush with the wood pins, other makers fill the recesses or have rounded 'domed' pins, no holes. A GEC 26 I have in Primitive Bone has very nicely domed pins smooth to the touch, so they CAN do it.
