Pros: Weight, Ease of Opening, Handle Material, Pocket Clip, Blade Material
Cons: None
Doesn't feel finished
Seems to be a good knife so far. There is a slight swedge that goes downwards so that your thumb can comfortably rest on it and further jimping down the spine allows you to get a better grip only when you need it. The 0780 is totally tactical, it feels great in hand, its solid, smooth but looks a little cheap; specifically the plastic backspacer and on one side you can see the torx head and on the other side you see the end of the screw. I also find it a little weird that the clip doesn't have any type of branding. The 0780 can be opened both with the flipper and thumbstuds with ease; oddly I have been finding myself using the thumbstuds more so than the flipper. I have read a rumor that the 0780 is already discontinued to prioritize manufacturing for other knives, but hopefully ZT can make another "small-skyline-like" knife in the future. To me the 0780 kind of feels like a "prototype" knife and with its short life I kind of wonder if it was rushed out the door. Don't get me wrong, its a great knife but doesn't have the 110% feeling I get from my other ZT knives. I don't know how to describe it, but somehow feels unfinished. Anyways, besides being a ZT and not feeling like a ZT, its still a great knife. Get it while you can.
