First of all, I love ZT knives. They are the company that got me into knives, and I think they put out production knives whose quality rivals and surpasses many custom makers. Their flippers are perfection. Their designs are gorgeous. They use high end materials.
That said, I sold off all my ZTs besides my 0180 fixed blade (a great knife in a great steel), and I own zero framelocks or flippers and don't really trust them. I don't much like flippers, I don't like washers, I really don't like Ti handles, and I hate, HATE recurves. The 0920 is all those things, but I can't keep it out of my pocket.
It is incredibly smooth and flies open, and it is just a sexy blade. The milling really gives the handle some grip, which is my main issue with titanium. It is an awesome blade. Now I'm going to have to practice sharpening recurves.
