Any Zero Tolerance 0452CF fans in the crowd?

Had three versions of the 0452 at one point. Sold two and kept the 0452ti sprint run. I like the knife but the 4.1” blade is a little too long for me. Really wish they made a 3.5” bladed version to be honest.

Wasn't going to say anything until you mentioned it.

I own 2 variations of the 0620 - a black G10 Elmax and a CF M390 -- and recently sold a 0630 G10 S35VN because it was unnecessary to keep because I still have the 0620s and I prefer the tanto blades on them to the drop point on the 0630.

The 0620/0630 are very nice licensed Emerson variants (nicer to me than "real" Emersons are) but I don't think the 0620/0630 are the "greatest ZTs ever produced" by a long shot.

People could debate this matter endlessly but, IMO, the 0200, 0300, 0452, 0560, 0610ST, 0620, 804, 0850, 0909 and 0920 (as well as others) could all be given such consideration but, in terms of something really "special," the list probably should be limited to just the 0454 Composite , the 0777 M390 or the 0888MAX.

Anyone want to start a poll? LOL!

I will say the 0620 is also one of my favorites and in a league of its own, being a tanto. ZT needs more tantos.....
Poll is a good idea but you’d have to include the 0392BluBowie and the 0392 purple/black WC. Couple grail knives IMO.
edit,...I’d put the 0804 right up there in the top 5 or 10 if it wasn’t for that god awful clip.

I’m a huge fan of the 0452 as well as the 0462. Solid cutters and great ergos.

I forgot to mention the 0999 too.

Wow! I bunch of new options to look at here. Thanks all!

I have to say, a mushy lock that moves with minimal effort…..that’s a huge cause for concern.

I like his designs. I only have the ZT 0456 which is one of his, and I really love the blade and the whole package (now that I got rid of the hideous OEM clip and replaced it with a full ti from MXG).

I know the 0456 doesn't get a lot of love, but I think it's a great knife.

I agree it is a beautiful knife. I ended up selling mine though because I just couldn’t get myself to carry it and get it scratched up lol
