All I can say is wow!

This is my first ZT. And on YouTube I heard some negative nit picks about this knife from self professed hypocrite knife reviewers. All I got to say is they are 100% dead wrong. If you want to know facts call ZT like I did. Super friendly representative honestly answered all my questions. And turned me into a believer. This knife is the absolute best folder I have ever purchased. Lock up perfect, no blade play, razor sharp tip, scalpel sharp blade, very ergonomic comfortable handle. Fit, finish and action is comparable or even a bit better than 90% of the knives running above $500. Including custom. This is the first liner lock I ever really liked and trust. Very thick and it won't close in on your fingers. Do yourself a favor if you want to try this knife. Ignore the YouTube reviewers and take a chance and try it for yourself. If you don't like it. Return it back to knife center for exchange or refund. This knife does not deserve the hate biased reviewers have been giving it. Think for yourself and decide what you like/dislike. Instead of letting shills and those with personal unjust biases on YouTube think for you. I have zero regrets and place this knife above all others in my collection. Including my $200 -$300 Hogues and Spydercos. Thank you ZT. You got a new lifelong customer here. Sincerely, Joshua. P.S. Thanks KnifeCenter.

May be the coolest knife I own.

Super duper awesome knife. Not sure how it would perform at real world tasks, more of a display piece for me. Feels super solid even though it's light. I like the size- I have small/medium hands. Fit and finish are superb.

So cool so good .

I like the knife , such a futuristic design , well made , perfect centered . Flips good on bearings , need to break in , excellent materials . Overall super cool pocket knife . I am not a big fun of its size -small . It perfect for small hands , not for L or XL hands size. The pocket clip could have been better . Anyway I think its a another "big shoot " from ZT , but its just 4 stars not 5 . I think should've been bigger - just my opinion . Thank you .

ZT0990

Overall another winner from ZT. Its a bit smaller than I would like. Prefer about a 10% + larger dimension . Quality and function is first rate as is typical of ZT.

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.

dissappointed

1. There is a 1.5 mm scratch on the handle steel 2. The knife is not sharp. Half of the time I can not cut through the paper, the paper just crumples. Very disappointed at this Made in USA knife.
