Zero Tollerance Knives
How many of you have this brand knife and what do you think of the quality and price?
I own a ZT350ts and find the quality to be very impressive, the price I paid is compareable to other higher end knives. The function is superb and dependable. It is on the heavier side to carry but not bad.

Re: Zero Tollerance Knives
I've had this one (0566) for over a year, don't carry it a lot but it's still razor-sharp like it came from the factory. Perfect weight in my opinion, really well built knives. 
I got it just to see what all the hoopla was about with El Max powered steel.

Here's a little better look at the 454 which is a heck of a knife.

Re: Zero Tollerance Knives
This knife was the first ZT for me. My wife and I are fans of NCIS and I used to comment on it every time Gibbs saved the world with it. One Christmas my wife gave me one. The thing is literally built like a tank. You get a fistfull of G10, titanium and S30V blade steel for the money.jerryd6818 wrote:A Leroy Jethro Gibbs knife (or close).

Re: Zero Tollerance Knives
Heavy = solid and for me that is needed in a working knife..I don't use ZT'$ at work I like there counter parts from Kershaw.A lot of guys in the trades use ZT.for me a lock back in strong hand then a modern folder for off hand..

Re: Zero Tollerance Knives
They are top build quality at a reasonable price but none that I've seen were particularly practical for regular use, the are thick and bulky, the blades being far thicker than is necessary for every day use and they can be out cut by a $5 imperial shell handle cheapo. For that reason I no longer have any zt's.

Re: Zero Tollerance Knives
Can't say I'd put these in the "big and bulky" category. ZT 0450; also, in Carbon Fiber. Great EDC'er
Probably make the "Top 5" of my favorite knives.
