Today's new arrival : the ZT 0640. Nices ergos, great blade, perfect fit and finish. Centering on point, though the washers will have to be worn in over time.
Weird look for the carbon fiber, it's definitely more yellowish than green, very Nurgle-like in colour but nice feel in hand.
No lock-stick, no play.
The only negative I see so far is the very tight pocket clip compared to the PM2's. I'm going to give it a couple of months and see if I want to change it. It's not going into jog pants unless you prime it first by raising the lip.
Still, I'm satisfied by that first impression !
Edit : it IS a little thicker than I'd like behind the edge. I'll wear out the factory sharpening and see if I can get it a bit slimmer freehand.
Great knife, terrible clip. It's the same bolt pattern as Bechmade/Emerson, so there are plenty of replacement options. I like the Bugout clip on mine. (Big Chris solved the BTE problem for me, and Sharp Dressed Knives solved the CF "issue")

Anyone here have any experience with a Zero Tolerance Les George 0909 model? I know where a brand new discontinued one is for a decent price, just curious if anyone here has one and what their impressions were? I know it's a beast of a folder!

If he starts modding his mower blades we’ll need an intervention!

Now that is an interesting idea... mower blade mod. Maybe blender blades. I have a lot of time right now. I cook for a living. Closed up until...?

I see you on the SAK forums. Good taste you have. This blade is actually cooler than I expected. Still lots of blade after the grinding.
- best wishes, Jazz.

Finally pulled the trigger on a Piranha and couldn’t be happier. Made in Idaho, with a Sebenza clip. Mirror polished 154cm blade. Yes please!
