Congrats on snagging yourself a Zaan. I still feel like it’s one of the best built production folders Hope it serves you well and that nub doesn’t get on your nerves 🤘🤘😎
I still can’t believe I got a tanto and drop point glass blasted in 2024. I would recommend just leaving the hole where the lanyard was. There is no rattle and it’s not necessary structural and honestly doesn’t look bad. They have in stock the additional spacer and screws on the website in case you were curious
Probably CRK’s best looking blade, but is a Hot spot magnet for me near the lock bar cut out. Every time I go to grip the knife that sticks in my hand…YMMV.
@@chucknunface I did the same thing bought one -sold it and got sucked in again-bought one and sold it again a week later. But it's probably the best-looking knife they make.
I almost grabbed that one from Knives Ship Free. I had it in my cart, then I had to wait because I was working. It was gone a couple hours later. I do have a Tanto Zann, but I’ve really want the drop point now.
Call Chris Reeve and order the drop point blade for your Zaan. It takes a year to get the blade and it's $150. I'm in the same predicament as you. I ordered mine like 2 months ago. The lady told me when the blade gets here I have to send in my Zaan to get the drop point blade fitted to my knife.
I think if I ever land a CRK, it's gonna be a Zaan. It just looks too cool. Tantos are rad but I think I'd go for a DP as well. If I'm gonna plunk that kinda money down on a knife, it's gonna be as useful as possible. I got expensive knife taste on a Chyna knife budget 🤣😎🤘
I really dont like the stop pin studs...really kills the knife for me personally. Far too rounded for my liking and really doesn't protrude quite enough for solid purchase. I also like to "flick" my knives if there are dual "studs" and I don't think it actuates well and fail to make it happen on the few I have had. Sexy looking knaf though for sure! ✌️

I think I get it now. Thanks, Dave!

The Zaan is definitely in top 5 for me
Heard that
Great video. Big fan of the ‘Zaan! Hard to believe my Wilson Combat Star Tac ‘Zaan is ten years old now. 😅
For real. It'd be cool to see those again. 1k on the secondary in minutes lol

That was something that bothered me before but I'll see if I get over it this time around

That's where I got this one. I happened to check my email shortly after ksf sent it. I pulled the trigger.

Really liked mine but man is it something that you need to get used to.
For sure

I do too I'm just irresponsible
@@chucknunface I wish I was irresponsible sometimes 😆
I’ve always loved the look of the knife, but that’s about it. I hate everything else about it, well almost everything else😅

I can't mff a single CRK, don't feel bad.
I’ve shucked over 500 oysters with mine.
Effective
@ best knife I’ve ever purchased hands down. I use and thoroughly abuse it regularly. I have another sitting in a drawer waiting for its turn lol.
@jonb3196 smart
Hella better than that ugly Medford.
