This'll probably be in the pocket for quite a while.
I expected to be disappointed, but was pleasantly surprised.
This model had been nagging at me all year. I kept coming back to it online and considering the purchase. Finally bit the bullet on one in the exchange. The reviews online aren't overly positive though.Why were you expecting to be disappointed?

ApostleP hated it, which I promptly ignored, but there were a load of others that had little issues with it.
I had to do a little surgery on the heel to fix ZTs terrible plunge/sharpening choil, but it's otherwise perfect. Came apart and went back together beautifully. Locks solid and drops shut. Great knife. I love it.
Thanks so much. Appreciate the info. I’m in the market for a ZT but there are so many attractive pieces it’s hard to choose.
Nice! Is that the d2 or 3v patriot?Running small & light today.
Only the second time the Positron has been in my pocket.

If you're looking at an 0850 I'd go for it.
I'm not a ZT fanboy. Very few of their models interest me at all, but this is just about perfect.
The only other I'd consider owning, due strictly to personal tastes, is the 0562CF. I like the 801Ti as well, but they made it out of the wrong steel.
If you're not in a hurry or not completely sold on the 0450 the 0609 is set to come out this year.Thanks Bryce. Those are a little large for me. I’m leaning towards the 0450.

A bit bigger than the 0450, but not quite as colossal as the others.
Aaaggghhh!!!!! If you don’t stop posting pics of that damned Medford, Ima gonna “ignore” you.
