Zero Tolerance 0770CF Assisted Opening Knife Carbon Fiber (3.25" SW) ZT

The fit and finish of this knife is stellar. Blade lockup and centering is rock-solid and dead-center. Lightweight and thin makes this phenomenal to carry. The carbon fiber handles are unique and look great, and is very comfortable in the hand.

The shape of the blade is also extremely functional. Bottom line, this is a great knife.

I have been looking at this knife for awhile now. My wife bought it for me and it is all you would expect of it. It has a thin profile and fits great in the hand and in the pocket. With the carbon fiber handles it is very light. I have quite a few automatic knives and have not been too interested in assisted openers but this one really opens fast and hard with a cool snap sound.

You snap this rather odd-looking-blade BadBoy open and anybody within a couple of feet goes: "Whoa! That's a Knife!". Also like Crockodile Dundee, on a much smaller scale.

It's really 'just the right size' for being a BadBoy EDC. I have several other 3"Blade /4"Handle /Under 3oz. /GoodSteel EDC's that I usually prefer to carry because they are a 'quarter-of-an-inch' & 'half-an-ounce' smaller. It IS a Good Light-Weight but solid-size (sharp!) EDC.

This is a great knife. Really lightweight and looks great. Opens quickly and blade and handles look good. My only complaints would be that the pocket clip is a little small but it is deep pocket carry and the knife isn't that big so its not a big deal. Also the flipper is a little small but it has jimping on it which makes up for it being small.

I thought I would regret getting this knife. Not a huge ZT fan, but I was surprised with the knife. It is thin and it very lightweight.
The carbon fiber looks real nice on the handles.
I am taking to the shape of the blade itself. Like a spear point blade just turned upside down. Cuts clean and is very sharp.
The only ding I would give this is the pocket clip. Tiny and short. Good for a gentleman's folder

This knife is perfect for formal attire and personal protection. The small black pocket clip with deep carry and light weight makes this perfect for carry with a suit and tie. Or jeans and a date night. It's another beautiful well made American knife from ZT.
If you're looking for practical EDC, would consider the following:
The carbon fiber looks pretty, but provides zero friction. The flipper is short and has a bit too much detent on mine for my taste.
All in all, nice addition to the collection for formal dress :)
