In the prototype the writing was in red (now it's black on the frame spine and no color on frame and clip), various logo reveals under the pivot when open and closed (none in final version) and wrap-around pocket clip.
You can see all the prototype details in this video clip from the 2015 Blade show: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dlk7RubVxVA&t=4m46s
Thank you. Also the carbon fiber insert on the proto was solid rather than having a metal center piece.
Zt 0600, zt 0888, and third the zt 0999 would be my top 3
The 0777 is clearly in the lead.After nearly 9 days of voting and 92 votes counted, there's still a very tight race for second place in this order:
- 0801
- 0454
- 0999
- 0600
The 0777 is clearly in the lead.
The 454, 600, and 999 are tied with the 801 one vote ahead. Maybe that means that for all the high tech and innovation the majority of knife nuts really just want a good, decently stout knife that isn't ridiculous or ugly. Only one knife on that list has ever been accused of being ugly and it has a lot of tech behind it to offset it's looks while the others rely on actual design and high standards.
Telling. Very telling.
Nearly 2 year old thread needs a nearly 2 year old update. You should consider starting a new thread.Mine would be - 0888 std, 0999, 0888MAX, 0606CF and the 0560CF.
I don’t own a 0777 but I’ll now have to buy one to see why it’s so well revered.
If you count all the variations of the 0392 you’re probably right. It’s a well built and designed beauty. I now own three variants. Every time I think of selling one all I have to do is handle and flip it, then it goes right back into the vault. Dangit!0392 is the winner
Same here. I only own two, but love them both. This is one of them. I just love the look of the blue and silver. The other is the BLK.If you count all the variations of the 0392 you’re probably right. It’s a well built and designed beauty. I now own three variants.
