Finally decided what my favorite brand is

I don't have any ZT so I haven't had the pleasure (lots of other knives though).
I have read Busted Tractors and Rusty Knuckles by Roger Welch
(I also read and enjoyed Old Troctors and The Men Who Love Them . . . both great books)
Do you have a Green Man or an AC ?

I don't have a tractor
. . . but I rebuilt and assembled a British car that I bought in cardboard boxes and baggies (including thorough engine rebuild) . . . ran great. Sort of like tractor work .

Didn't we just have a thread on precisely this topic "favorite brand"?

Anyway, ZT's are good knives, but not my favorite brand. I have been very pleased with the one I own, and I may eventually buy another.
 
I would really like to own more ZTs, the 0450 I have is excellent. I just always find myself going for other brands' models.

I would think there are many like me who haven't really decided yet or just don't have one.

My favorite company ( for just the company itself ) would be Buck because they're a family owned business who treats it's customers right.

I'd never really hesitate to buy a Buck or Victorinox knife , but because I really love a good old fashioned carbon steel I can't really call either my favorite for the knives themselves.
If Victorinox or Buck offered knives in something like 1070-1095 without a major cost difference I think I could easily choose both as absolute favorites for EDC.
 
I hadn’t carried my ZT0550 in awhile, but pulled it out last weekend. I had forgotten how well it fit my hand. It’s going to get back in the regular rotation for sure.
 
At the moment ZT took over as my favorite brand . They don't make my favorite Edc Knife ( PM2, Caly3.5 940-1 ) but they make the knives that I enjoy owning .

Where there you go, as much as you talk about Buck Knives, I knew that had to be your favorite brand. See, everyone has a favorite.

Glad you found a favorite brand.
I be too much of a knife philanderer
to narrow it all down to a single brand option.
It's kinda like picking out a pair jeans,
Paying attention to that elusive great fit and comfort,
Oh, and fine cut too!
I suppose someday I might have to pick a favorite brand
to make an honest Knifenut outta the likes of me.
I can only say that ZT knives is indeed very lucky to have found someone!
 
I currently have a favorite and a close second.
Spyderco is my favorite.
Things could change.
 
I liked ZT better when their knives were "built like tanks" but they're just supplying the demand of the market.. Definitely still a good solid choice of knives
 
Good choice for a favorite. I don't have a single favorite, but have a cluster of brands for production knives that I trust and go back to over and over. Spyderco. Benchmade. Kershaw. ZT. Cold Steel. ESEE. Ontario. Condor.
 
Buying my first ZT very soon..0095
I love Protech and Guardian Tactical.
Thought I'd try out a ZT. I love flippers!

You haven't tried a ZT yet?!?! That's a surprise. I think you'll be surprised. You can easily flip them all day long
 
I own the 0566CF in M390, 450, 550 & 900. Quality pieces, I just wish ZT would make more smaller blades.
