The title may seem obscure but the Adapted K118 binding was demonstrated by Glenn Malkin at the Bind23 Conference and it dispenses with the need for the traditional sewing onto cords but focuses instead on the alternating tab method of board attachment, in this
case using cloth rather than traditional vellum to produce a book with a rounded spine, which opens well and does not require specialist equipment for backing.
