looking for opinions on zero tolerance knives

#1

Post by tenaciousj »

considering a zt 350 but am unsure about the liner lock

i have handle the 300 and the frame lock is rock solid, although i saw it fail in a video. (neither here nor there)

the liners on the 350 look incredibly stout but i would not be interested if there was even a small amount of play or give or movement of the lock under reasonable pressure, know what i mean?

so how are these knives when they are brand new, and when they have a few miles on em?

thanks guys

You won't be disappointed ;) !!! The liner-lock on the 0350 is VERY STOUT and there is ZERO play in the blade. After using this blade on-duty it still locks up Rock-Solid.

Back to the liners. The liners on this model are super thick. They are just as thick if not thicker than some frame-locks... No Lock Failure Here!!! Don't know if you know this, but the ZT 0350 is an A/O model. Hope this helps some. Take Good Care and Be Safe Always.
