Pocketknives/Kitchen Knives/Fixed Blades
-
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
-
Very nice urb, I like ZT's, never had an issue with one.
-
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
-
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... -
If it's modeled after the Hinderer XM series (which it physically resembles) then there is probably no assist.

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. -
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? -
Based on the grid it's lying on my guess is 3 1/4" EDIT: Google confirms
-
Doug is like a knife encyclopedia…
-
Holy shit! That's badass.
-
Ah I was picturing you grinding blades
-
Doug's the knife man that's for sure! 3 1/4" sounds perfect, thanks for the look up mac
I'm a fan of Rick's
knives, that 0566 will be a winner if I can find one. -
Not really. I worked his table at the Vegas show maybe seven years ago. Did some other stuff for him too like order tshirts/hats/merch. Wasn't for very long
He is one of the makers that I just will never own. His stuff is way hyped, over priced and in all honestly I was completely unimpressed with the man when I tried to meet him/talk to him at Blade '11. At Blade shows his booth gets about 5+ people thick/ mobbed so I waited in line for about a half hour to get to talk to the man, I'm up next and he just walks away to talk to someone else. I've had some great experiences with knife makers and will gladly give them my money, but not him.
