Cons: Pocket Clip
Little knife...Big performance
As an EDC knife, this one is hard to beat. Light, yet very strong, with rock solid lockup. Out of the box sharp. I love the lock system and fact that a secondary lock can be deployed that absolutely prevents accidental closure. This is a great knife for the money. I own knives 2X as much that are no better. My only complaint would be the clip, or I should say I'd prefer a deep carry type.

Well. Two minor issues actually. First is a small amount of play or rotational movement when it’s in the closed position. Does not affect functionality but it’s noticeable. Second is (or was) the pocket clip which simply broke the first time I put it into my pocket. I had an aftermarket one (MXG Gear) for the ZT 0450 which fits & I planned to use anyway so not a big deal. Now the good - it’s a great little knife that came exceptionally sharp. It fires hard with the flipper and locks up solidly. It’s light and carries easily. Hollow grind is a plus for slicing cardboard and similar materials. Seems like a reasonable value for what you get.
