Z-wear Mule!

#1

Post by Josh Crutchley »

New reveal has MT-30 and it's Zapp Z-Wear. It's pretty much the same as Cpm-Cruwear and PD#1. Not sure if I'll get this one since I have PD#1. How do you guys feel about a Z-Wear mule?

I want one because I have Cruwear and PD#1. I'm really interested in trying to compare the variants to see if I can notice any difference at all.

I don't have any super-hard mega-catra-cutters, so I'd love to snag a Z-max first. Z-wear if I have funds left over...

Tom I hope you report; I'm gonna bet the differences are negligible, but what do I know...

How will Z-wear compare to the Z-max? I am guessing Z-max will be harder and hold an edge better. But the Z-wear would be less prone to chip. How would they compare to rust resistance?

Hi again! I have the pd1 mule that I take fishing and camping. I have yet to stain it (or even rust it for that matter). Z-wear is likely a semi-stainless while maxamet tends to rust if neglected for too long.

So, I'm planning to get one of these. After waiting for like 6 months for Halpern to release new mule team scales, I finally decided to give up and sell my PD#1 mule. The SAME DAY I sold it, I got an email from Halpern saying scales were finally back. So anyhow now I need the z-wear! 🤦‍♀️😭

Good luck finding one that's not being sold by a scalper. I've given up trying to buy a mule. I don't need a knife soo bad that I need to fight scalpers and bots. I'll stick to regular production for now on.
