I just picked up my second ZT knife — came in the mail today from Amazon. It’s the 0022 model and I’m really liking my first impression.

My ZT 0456 no longer has the blues! Removed the blue anodizing from the hardware.

They are my go to production folder brand. I know several people in design, sales etc and they are all good people. I have at least a dozen or so.
They make something for everyone these days from dressy to hard use.

It’s a 0562. These all are 0562. That one is wearing a custom Micarta scale.

They’re from Germany. I bought them from a guy in the Airforce who bought them. He told me the name of the shop he ordered them from. I looked them up & their site said. “shipping to the US takes 3 months to get in hand. If you can’t wait, don’t order”.
I deleted the shops info. But they are nicely done.

Added a second zt0456 but I’m leaving the blue hardware alone on this one. Really like this titanium spud.

Zero Tolerance does make nice knives. I’m looking for a deal on a ZT 0560. Love the hunt for discontinued models.
Added a new addition to the ZT 0456 family. The ZT 0456bw (blackwash)

I’m actually becoming a real fan of this ZT 0560. Might need another shortly. After a disassembly, cleaning, lube & polishing, it’s drop shut and looking correct. Shame they discontinued it.

Loving these Micarta scales. Takes one of my boring black G10 0562s to a much more appealing level.

I like ZT. Started with the tiger striped 300’s then ended up with black, brown, and CF 560’s. Not sure why they discontinued this one. Other than not having the lock bar insert it’s as good as any other. I don’t even even mind this because I don’t use folders all that “hard”. It’s a big knife but it flips well and while not a thin blade it isn’t a bad geometry.
Just picked up an anodized 562Ti. I think I will like it as well.
