Love the 0609. The blue scales are amazing. Mine are bronze. It has a fantastic blade to handle ratio. Great blade to weight ratio as well. This may be my favorite ZT to carry.
It didn't come with the tool I picked it up and sent it to you in case you needed it 😀
Oh thanks!! Haha good to know 😅
Thinking of picking up the black sprint run version of this in S35VN. Was considering to get the regular version in 20CV but the Sprint Run is almost half the price for some reason, so why not save some money also :)
I have the purple one with the grey DLC blade. Very nice looking I really like it. It's a little on the small side though.
Thanks for the review. Have you had any bad experiences with ZT lock failures?
One of my go to knives!
I just got the tool today and I was able to tighten the pivot just using the tool on the show side alone.
Thought about buying one of these from my local shop but the action didn't feel snappy enough.
I'm really am happy with mine!
Gave Shaker the follow.👍 I really like this blade but had the same problem with it, just a couple inches shy of size.
Hey guys I am a younger guy getting into knives. Can you recommend anything budget friendly.
I've got a whole playlist called "cheap knives I like". Check it out! 😊
I have this thing in bronze for over a year now. Even if you add the 20 bucks for the kershaw tool here in Europe this was very competitively priced IMHO!
I added a detent ramp myself and that makes it a VERY GOOD action knife!
only complaint I have is the clip. Way to shallow and I have not found a good replacement...
oh and by the way the billboarding on the clip will wear away in not time :D no issue with the billboarding after a week of carry!
Have you seen the deep carry clip made specifically for the 0609 from MXG Gear? It even comes in a bronze that matches the regular 0609 pretty well! mxggear.com/collections/zt0609/products/custom-made-titanium-deep-carry-pocket-clip-for-zero-tolerance-zt0609
Hopefully your location doesn't complicate getting your hands on this clip.
hey achim, my billboarding is completly fine. im wearing the knife inside my pocket while the clip remains outside. nothing there to rub the letters off :)
This is my favorite, and only, ZT - lol. The original bronze version looks the best imo. I thought about buying the 0562 ti about a hundred times but somehow i always end up buying something else. Just acquired a CKF Baugi, a Herman Sting 2, and a Koenig Arius flipper delete with blue twill carbon handle, blue hardware and backspacer and a hand-rubbed satin M390 blade.
Where did you get that Koenig from man?
I'm actually buying 1 of those in about an hour. I'm writing this before you finish. I hope it gets a good review. Lol
😉
@@metal_complex got it. Purple with the black blade.
Nice!!
I was able to handle one of these at Blade Show last year. It was absolutely a bit smaller than I had expected, but felt really good in hand. The action was great and felt of good quality. However, that proprietary pivot totally put me off. And finding out it is also not captured, big no from me - not matter how good it looks, aesthetically.
Usually when it I have a knife like this and carry it a lot, I’ll usually just keep like a case in my truck, like one of those sunglasses soft cases and I’ll keep a torx screwdriver with some bits, and some oil and rag to clean my knife in case it gets wet and dirty. So if I had this knife I’d just throw the pivot tool in my case in the center console and it would stay there if I ever needed it.
i just spend 40€ for the pivot tool. that really sucks. why cant you use "screws" that are compatible with general tools ....
Great video! Awesome EDC knife!
Is ZT still around? They’ve certainly been quiet and don’t have any (new) competitive offerings
Oh ya they're still going. Slower than others for sure though
Mini Ritter hogue or this?
I personally don't care for frame locks, but it's hard to deny that this is a handsomely designed knife with the overall profile, the blade grind, and the handle texturing.
👋
for your ideal ZT you basically described the ZT0920
Ya that one is pretty darn close! I've reviewed it 😊
Just the fact that you had do much trouble getting back together it looks like a situation Lmao: ))
This thing looks like it would be a pain in the ass to clamp it in a guided sharping system.
Great video
"it's a process." Ahem Hinderer ahem
Weeeellll.... you can use a flat head screwdriver on a Hinderer 😉
Okay buddy
I hate proprietary tooled knives. I’m mean WHY? There is absolutely no good reason that I can think of to do that. Can anyone give me good reason to do that? Does it make them more profitable? Does it make them cooler? Is it some sort of ridiculous statement of exclusivity? Also even though I watched till the end, I somehow missed the price if this knife.
I want one!
You came here from steveee video right
Yes
What's happening?!
Great blade shape. Not a great flipping action, IMO.
If you carry the tool with you, you may be a tool.
