Still waiting on my ZT0600 from knifecenter.com. Well below retail but I'd have picked one up from eBay had I known it would take so goddamned log.

I received it from Brian Fellhoelter at Blade 2012. It was in his pocket, and he was nice enough to let me buy it off of him. He carried it for a year or so, and actually upgraded it with the newer machined pivot and accents a few months before the show. Here's the back side…

Badass…

Another winner Mike, I know that Tad Gear did collabs with Strider and ZT…I like yours better. I'd own that
second one if I could find it. -
I bought this in Japan eight years ago for about $60 USD and its been my go-to knife ever since. It keeps an edge better than any knife I've ever used, and as often as I use this blade, you'd think it would need sharpening pretty often. I've sharpened it twice in eight years. I hone it after 4-5 uses or as needed, but its simply a fantastic knife. It's slightly flexible and has a nice thin blade that makes precision cuts effortlessly.

Gorgeous.
My buddy has a high carbon Chinese cleaver. More of a blunt instrument than your beauty, but razor sharp and has never needed sharpening, after quartering birds and all sort of abuse.

and another…

Love that Damascus.

Yap…
The fellow that Giles hooked me up with to make a sheath for my wharncliffe has agreed to put jimping on the blade. I think that's gonna rawk.
Hey folks. Anyone know a good sheath-maker? I'd like a nice leather one for this Wharncliffe, 3 1/8" blade. It was intended to live in a neck sheath.
EDIT: Happily just found a Duluth, MN sheathmaker who made this, which is the look I think I want… May have to visit them..

To keep the Damascus theme going…
-
Love Damascus! You've got some killer knives there Mike…

^thats a beauty knives that and Case are so old school. Reminds me of my Grandpa's knives. I like the newer knives Begg, Hinderer, Martin etc… but for me they don't have the nostalgia of a classic slip joint.
