Got my 0560 in the mail today! The only problems that it has are a weak detent (relative to what they have claimed to have)and very very slight up and down play. I hope it fixes itself but if it doesn't I'm going to send it in. Amazing knife otherwise. Can't wait to use the crap out of it.
 
I would give it some time to settle in. Once that lock face wears a little im sure it will give you no problems. The detent IMHO is a very odd subject as mine is super strong but it definitely gets the job done. I wouldnt call it weak but I wouldnt call it overly strong. The word perfect comes to mind. Honestly though I really think it was more of an issue with guys who werent used to how flippers work and had weak fingers. That or they were death gripping the lockbar as they were trying to flip it and prevented the detent from letting go of the blade. Congrats on your knife. I know I love mine.

My detent is weak. I can shake it out with little effort. I wish it was a little stronger but it still flips great. If my lock is still having problems by Blade I will just talk to ZT about it.
