Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades

[Blackheart]

Bummer! This guy from Oregon has a ton of knives, got my ZT 0301 from him with a tiny nick on the
frame. Goes for about $272 online, up to $340 in the shops, I got it for $223. Also picked up a discontinued
model, not sure of the model number but it has a tanto blade, retailed for around $200, got it for $75.

Recurved tanto from zt?

[Blackheart]

Yeah, I think that's it…Nice knife, very solid. Interested to see what he has at the end of the month, I might
pick up another one of these if he still has them.

ZT0400 Scavenger

[Blackheart]

No, it's the ZT 0700. I had to look it up. The 0400 is cool though, I'm going to be on the lookout for that
one!

[DougNg]

They haven't made that one in awhile, but I see them pop up here and there

I like the blade shape, but they're a real pain to sharpen

[Blackheart]

Yeah, it's discontinued. The guy had about 8 of them.

Blade shape is nice, I can have it sharpened at a knife shop, there's two near me that do a good job.
I rotate my knives though, I carry a different one almost every day so they all stay pretty sharp.
For $75 bucks though I couldn't pass that 0700 up.

Just got the ZT 0566
Love it

[Blackheart]

Very nice urb, I like ZT's, never had an issue with one.

[urbanwoodsman]

I feel like a waited FOREVER for this knife. I have a ZT 350 as well and they are both solid for the price.

Spanto is a terrific blade shape imo

[Blackheart]

I love the Hinderer design on that knife, so solid and good looking. I have that one on my list, locally the
black is hard to find for some reason…Probably more popular than the tan. I almost bought the tan a few
months ago but decided to hold out for the black. Blade shape is excellent, if I recall the blade is not spring
assisted...

[mclaincausey]

If it's modeled after the Hinderer XM series (which it physically resembles) then there is probably no assist.

Are you talking about the 0560? That one isn't spring assisted.
This is the brand new 0566. I got lucky even finding it as most people who preordered still do not have it. It's much smaller and is spring assisted.

[Blackheart]

Yes, the 0560 I know isn't spring assisted, the 0566 is. Just checked that. The one I saw was the 0560, the
0566 is the one I want. I'm hoping the guy at the gun show has these, I haven't seen one here locally yet.
What is the blade length on the 0566?

[mclaincausey]

Based on the grid it's lying on my guess is 3 1/4" EDIT: Google confirms

[DougNg]

Rick's ZT collabs are based off his "Camp Knife" design, of which there are very few

[mclaincausey]

Doug is like a knife encyclopedia…

[DougNg]

I used to work for Rick Hinderer

[mclaincausey]

Holy shit!  That's badass.
