I've come to appreciate the ZT 0308 for its excellent design, heavy-duty capabilities and ease of disassembly. It's kind of the basic thrust of ZT knives. But I have three and wanted to gussy up one.
So I put a hand-finished maple scale on my ZT 0308BLKTS KVT. A craftsman in Finland (Sechnikovworkshop) makes these scales from solid maple. They are cut by CNC, but polished, painted and oiled by hand. I also replaced the standard bearings with Skiff ceramic bearings and added a bronze-colored, deep-carry pocket clip. The knife comes apart easily. You just need a 1/2 inch open-end wrench for the pivot, T8 screws for the scales and T6 for the pocket clip. The new bearings make the knife snappier. It flies open and falls shut most of the time.
If you have some ZT mods, I'd love to see them.
