Hybrid 3-ring binder and pronged folder

[classicHSmom]

I'm looking for something to bind my 3-hole punched WW1 instructor pages. They have been in a 3-ring binder, but the binder is too bulky. I like the idea of a pronged folder, but they aren't wide enough to hold all the pages. I don't think that I can have it spiral bound because of the hole punches.

 

If I'm remembering correctly, there used to be clear binder-ish folder things that we used to use for projects and presentations 15 or 20 years ago. They were made of flexible, clear plastic kind of like sheet protectors but thicker. I can't remember exactly how they bound, but they didn't have rings. I don't think that they had prongs either. I can't find them in local stores and don't know how to search for them online.

 

Anyone know what I'm talking about?

I used to see those especially in Asian stationery stores.

I think they are called metal post binders:

These probably aren't the size you want, but it's a start.

Report covers? I've found these in packs of 5 at walmart. You put the papers into the plastic cover and it's all held together with a plastic bar that you slide over the end.

 

ETA: these don't hold a lot of pages; 20 maybe?

 

ETA2: Clamp binder?
