Difference in ZT 0550 Gen 1 and 2

[northend816]

Ive been thinking of getting 0550 for few weeks now(decided to get breakout first) but as im looking ive come across Gen 1 and 2s......I have not been able to see the difference in the two???? Can someone please tell me and which they would pick? thanks

The lockbar cut out is on the inside of the scale on the gen 1 and the pocket clip is a regular clip. On the gen 2 the lockbar cut out was moved to the outside of the scales and the pocket clip was changed to a deep carry clip.

i personally prefer the gen 2, I like deep carry on my blades whenever possible. i also like the lockbar cutout on the outside. It means less travel is needed to engage the lock, not a huge difference, but enough for me
