0400 wet dream

[Flashpoint]

I have a question to ZT 0400 owners.

I have a Groove Tanto and the blade has a hollow ground hawkbill and a flat ground tip.

I am wondering if the 0400 has both flat ground edges, but at different angles from each other. Can someone hold a straight edge or piece of paper to the hawkbill grind and tell me if its flat or hollow ground.

Trying to figure out if I really need to get one of these. I like them and have wanted one for a while but never got around to it.

IIRC, it's a flat grind on hawkbill part.

As much as I love the Scavenger, I think the Groove Tanto has filled that gap and more.

If only it had a hollow hawk and a flat tip like the Groove Tanto, but with S30V, oh well my perfect knife still hasn't been released yet.

I traded my 0400 for a Mcusta and replaced it with the Tanto Groove. Which lead to buying a regular Groove. Which is making look seriously at the monster ZT coming out.

I really love the Groove Tanto, but for the life of me I can't really get it to flip as smooth as my silver Groove. I even put in the teflon washers from a Zing and used a sharpie on the blade frame lock face. Its still hard to flip and unlock. As much as I like the DLC, its kind of annoying. I'll have to do more tinkering.

I think if you really wanted to go for it, that the 0400 + Groove would make an awesome little EDC set up.
ZT 0400 in the RFP and Tanto Groove in the LFP or vise versa. It'd give you a great pair. =] But that's just my opinion.

I owned the ZT 0400 once and always regretted having to get rid of it. I don't even really like tanto blades, so liking that knife was different. But there is just something about it.
