New ZT/Hinderer Flipper is Coming!!!0560/0561

[steeef]

Just got my 560 today from KershawGuy. I thought for sure I'd be in for a long wait, but it took maybe three days tops.

It's so pretty! I can't stop flipping it...

My payment submitted Saturday just cleared today. PayPal, what did i do wrong to earn your anger?

Craving my ZT 0560

[Alchemy1]

My 0561 just let me down a little I got home and slipped on my gym shorts, as usual. I put my phone and my 0561 in either pocket and went out to play with the dog. Well, after coming in and sitting around for a while I needed to use my knife. To my surprise it was open! I though I might have accidently hit the flipper and deployed the blade in my pocket. NOPE! I held it by the handle and shook it and the knife popped open again and again. Takes a good bit of force, but my detent is definitely getting weaker.

I should be getting my ZT 0560 at the end of this week. Cannot wait! Why ZT why?

Finally! Action is a little tight, but once I get a chance, I'll be breaking it in. Lock up is like 35%. Feels like magic in the hand.

It's going to be hard keeping it out of my pocket during work tonight, but I'd be making people uncomfortable just flipping it open and closing it while slinging beers.

Went to Cabela's today and was looking at knives there, with the 560 in my pocket, the guy there asked what kind I carried and I showed him, he was very impressed and said he'd buy me any knife there in trade, surprisingly accurate guess at the price of it too ($300). (I didn't trade it of course)

[Alphahunter]

thanks, buddy

Wow my brother - you finally picked up my ZT 0560 - Let me have your PP info and I'll send it right out!

[Moses_3]

Yes! I just found a 561 in the exchange for a fair price. I am looking forward to getting my 561. I have been in this thread a lot over the 14 months and now I am getting one .
I just had to share

Just got my 0560 a few days ago. Had the sticky lock bar and blade is off center to the lock side. Not sure how to center the blade, but the led on the lock bar worked well. My detent was real strong. After I switched the pocket clip to tip down (as I carry in my back right pocket or front left when carrying a firearm.) My detent has gotten really weak. Is it that the pc pushes on the lock bar in tip up, how it comes? I have not tried to put the clip back to check. But was wondering if anyone else has experienced this? TIA.

To those that are trying out these non-deep carry pocket clips from knifekits.com, please let us know how they turn out. I have some dressier pants that I just simply cannot fit this thing in as it is too long. I know, I know, I have a Case Mini Copperhead w/ Blue Bone, but nothing comes close to the feel and performance of my ZT0561.

Ok, I got my pocket clips from knifekits.com today. I haven't had a chance to carry with it yet. But it fits the knife perfectly. I don't really care for the polished finish. But that can be changed easily. It has a much lower profile than the factory clip as well.

Whew, nice clip, but that thing shines like the door on a whorehouse. I hit it with some 00 steel wool.

Got an email this morning from KershawGuy that my name is up in the shipment of 561's he got in.

Excited? Why yes, yes I am.

[eneyman]

I just traded for a new brown 561, I am so excited.. will be my first ZT. I hope it lives up to the hype/praise this model has received thus far.

The ZT 300 is actually what got me into higher end knives (actually the 302, but that was already scarce by the time I decided to jump into knives as a hobby, instead of just beating on $10 pocket knives until they broke or cut me when a lock failed). The 056x's are even more awesome. Larger sized knives that carry and feel like a precision cutting machine. I can barely feel mine in the back pocket, even though it is on the heavier side.

My 560 that got shipped to me last week has no flaws at all, and hopefully to 561 that Kershaw Guy shipped today will be the same!

Relaxing with my 560 and CF Metro. It's awesome out tonight!

I really want that scale! Looks great. I like my LSCF, but that one is just dead sexy. I may have to hit up Peter for one of those!

Thanks, I love it!

So...

I don't think I can live without a flipper anymore. This thing has tainted me forever.

[00ChevyScott]

So I saw on a video somewhere on youtube that the G10 pattern has been changed in the later models? Is that true or did someone get the 0551 and 0550 mixed up?
