Could somebody post pics of a 4-pin and a 3-pin side by side? Does the lock bar pivot count? I've mostly collected fixed blades and have just recently started to look at some larger folders.
So I'm posting these here in response to my own question. The one on the granite surface I lifted from the Bay. The one on the green mat is mine. If my research is close to right, the 4-pins were made up to some specific date - maybe 1984 or so - and the 3-pins were made from then until the start of the Taylor era and have continued since. I did see one answer on another site that suggested that Schrade provided 4-pins in response to loss warranty claims but I am a bit skeptical of that.
