ZT0990: Model 0990 Folding Knife

Zero Tolerance Knives

Based on the award-winning 0999, the 0990 streamlines this legendary design. Despite its skeletonized structure, this ZT is reliably strong thanks to its steel construction. Other elements pay homage to the original 0999, including an exposed “floating bridge” near the top of the handle, carbon fiber scales with a front steel overlay, and cutout windows in the blade and near the pivot. Instead of a ZT logo on the blade itself, the words “Zero Tolerance” are subtly debossed into the backspacer. The CPM-20CV blade offers excellent edge retention and opens reliably with KVT ball bearings. Once unobtainable for most, the 0990 offers the best way to bring the legend home.

Pros: Blade Material, Blade Sharpness, Lock Type, Overall Quality, Pocket Clip
Cons: Handle Material, Weight
It is a knife
The knife appears generally as advertised, no complaints in terms of appearance.It is lightweight but the build quality is overall solid.Initially the joint was a bit stiff, but over a few days of opening and closing it loosened up to a nice level.One aspect that is somewhat disappointing is that the back spacer bearing the company name is molded of a generic plastic, which is not mentioned anywhere.Every plastic decays over time and I would have hoped not to have such a failure point on a knife at this price point.
