Got this guy, not the best pics but the quality on these is insane! the fit and finish is super tight with smooth walk and talk.
 
This set up again today, I'm really loving it. I've divided my knives into a few "Two Knife EDC's" and decided to carry each for a week at a time, that way each knife gets equal love. So it's Day 3 for this one.
Spyderco Paramilitary 2
Spyderco Native 4 CF
Maglite XL50
Hinderer Investigator Pen
Handy Dandy Lighter

ZT 560 hinderer. I've had everything from sebenzas to buck 110s and they were never perfect, that is until I came across this knife. Your eyes do not deceive you, I repeat the sebenza was not perfect. Great knife yes, perfect? No. Not for me at least. The tiny sharp and pointy thumb stud was my main issue, that and the handle shape was good but not great and the blade was a little small. I like it to be as large as is legal to carry. Also my Sebbie came pretty dull from the factory. Not really a big deal but at that price I expect perfection in Q.C. In the ZT 560 I get everything I loved about the Sebenza, precise, strong, titanium frame lock, ultra smooth operation, great looks, and now I get a great opening method, an absolutely perfect handle for my hands (it literally feels like it was meant for me in every grip possible), a non over travel lock bar and more textured scales, A bigger blade, and it came from ZT hair popping sharp. All this and it was $100 cheaper than the sebbie. The reason I'm comparing so heavily to the sebenza is because for me it was my go to EDC even with the issues mentioned it was a great knife and fit better than anything else i tried up until the 560. Most of the issues mentioned are personal preference so don't let them discourage you from buying a sebbie. For some it truly is their EDC holy grail, just not for me. That honor goes to the ZT560. This knife is essentially perfect for me as an EDC! It will be a long time before I find a knife to dethrone this champ. will I carry other knives sometimes sure but, just like my spyderco tuff is right now, they'll be in my off side pocket respectful of the one at the head of the table.
