I just don't see why pinned would be preferred over screwed construction. If you're worried about screws backing out (never had that happen personally) there's red Loctite. If you ever happen to need to access the knife for cleaning, heat the screws up to loosen, clean, and throw Loctite back on.
First time I've seen washers like that with a second anchor point. Thanks for the photo.
I wonder what advantage or benefit this type has over plain circular washers?
