Convince me to buy or not buy the ZT 0450CF

Yeah I agree, I’m not super crazy about the black blade, but I love the carbon fiber. I would love it if they had a satin blade for the 0450CF.

The ZDP189 version has a satin blade. They were a limited run but they come up for sale on the secondary market from time to time. They are a bit more expensive though. There is also a G10 version with satin blade. But, you loose the CF. After market scales?
 
By all means get one but you might want to pick up an aftermarket pocket clip from MXG. Please check out the nearby thread on ZT 0450 Pocket clip play to see what I'm talking about.
 
The 0450cf was my first $100+ knife and I don't regret it at all, great EDC for the office that is easily forgotten you're carrying it. Go for it, I think you'll be satisfied.
 
Buy the dang knife!

The 0450 is my first ‘nice’ knife and still a favorite.
I prefer the all Ti version, but adding the cf version to my quiver is inevitable!
 
Perfect thread for me as I am also considering getting the the ZT 0450cf.
I like the carbon fiber but not the black blade. Maybe 0450 in titanium?
I have a ZT 0452, which is very similar just a lot bigger I think. The 0450 just seems a good choice to carry when not wanting scary long blades.

Contact @whitty , get a custom anodized Titanium one from him. Dark bronze with satin blade, best of both worlds. :thumbsup:
