I assume that you discard the Apocrypha.

Yup. Just like you disgard the OT and view the entire Bible as a smorgassboard take what ya like and throw the rest out.

Your Bible is the Bible of the Puritans. Those who produced the KJV also translated the Apocrypha, because they knew that it provided a necessary bridge between the Hebrew scriptures and the Greek New Testament. The Puritans simply dropped them. Talk about picking and choosing.
