USMC Camillus. Why no fuller?

Camillus has turned out a number of different USMC commemorative Mk. 2 knives over the years. Deleting the fuller is cheaper to make and also provides a huge flat area for engraving, as seen on some of those commemorative knives. This knife might be an over run of some sort that did not get engraved. Just a guess.

 

Or it might be a Walmart knife. I know Ontario Knife deleted the fuller on the jet pilot knives they sold to Walmart. Maybe Camillus did the same cost cutting at some point in the past for a Walmart exclusive USMC knife. Again, just a guess.

OK, a bit more research shows my first thought is most likely correct. Below is a link to a 2016 post asking about a similar knife. Gary Cunningham stated they were over runs from knives made for engraving by 3rd party companies.
