I was looking for a new EDC, something beefy but able to be carried in dress pants during the week. I had been seeing some good reviews on ZT so when I went into the knife store I checked out the ZT knives. The 350 seemed to fit the bill. It had great blade steel, easy to deploy, and excellent lock up. The sound when locking up is solid, kind of like a solidly built car door closing.

I have been carrying the knife for the last few days at work and in jeans. The knife has fit great in both roles. Fit and finish on the knife is very good especially considering the price. I highly recommend this knife for the office dweller. This is the first ZT that I have bought but may need to get one of the larger versions later for carry on weekends.
 
560/561's are getting pretty affordable these days, and the 0801 is a killer deal for what youre gettin.
 
With ZT's new offerings (0801, 0770 for me) and finally picking up old offerings (0561, 0550, and 0200) , this is going to be a bad year for my wallet.
 
ZT puts out some killer stuff. Get a 0301 if you want a big beefy knife. The 0560 line is great also.
 
My production grail knife was a 0561. I carried it exclusively for months but lately I find myself returning to the 0350, which is ironic because I have a thing against recurves. It's a great little/big knife. Mine is de-assisted and after finding the sweet spot as far as blade centering and the pivot is concerned, it is one of my favorite flippers as well.
 
Between the 0350/ 0360 skd, 0801, 0566, and the 0770, there are now a few good options/ choices for a big little ZT. The 0780 and 0750 are the two smallest Zt's out there if you need even smaller.
 
I handled an orange 350 at ECCKS 2013... That orange was something special.

Probably wouldn't get it in that color, but they're still cool.

Thanks for the mini review!
 
Yea have to say it really is a killer package especially if you can snag yourself a 360.skd. really takes the knife to a whole new level IMHO.
 
The 0350 was my first ZT. I love it and carry it everyday. It's a great knife and fits well in my pocket.

I just picked up a limited edition 0350 with brown aluminum scales and the thing is a tank! Just like you mentioned the lock up and blade deployment is incredibly solid, (although mine is deassisted). I havent carried it much yet but I can certainly see it being a mainstay in my rotation. Nice mini review/endorsement for a great litttle (big) knife
 
The 0350 is my favorite ZT knife. Perfect blend of ergonomics, ruggedness, and carryability. Now if they made one with tan G10 and a deep carry pocket clip it would be absolutely perfect!
 
Carried a 350 for the last 2 yrs, anxiously waiting for the 566. 350 is just a little wide from top of the spine to back of the grip, but a great knife. 566 should be almost perfect.
