Hi guys, my name is Evan. I'm pretty new to the forums. I was hoping I could get some opinions on whether or not my ZT 0562cf is real. After doing some research, everything is pointing towards it being real (Serial # on blade matches box, texture in the lock bar relief cut out, red stamp inside box, jimping, pivot screw etc.) The only thing that is bothering me is the cf scale. I heard people saying the fake ones have wider tapering at the edges of the scale and it looks like mine does too. I'm a little bit worried. Please chime in. Thanks in advance!
 
Yeah... can't help here w/o pix. Also, where did you buy the knife? Your best assurance is to buy new from legitimate dealers or trade / sell / buy pre-owned from people you trust on sites like BF. I will say that even with automated machining there can be minor differences in how parts look. If you have no other reason to think the knife is a fake, then chances are it's legit.

But post some pix and somebody'll be able to help.
 
Thanks, and I bought the knife on eBay from a seller with 100% positive reviews from a lot of people.
 
The saying goes, "If you have to ask if the item is legit, then chances are it might not be". There are legit vendors on eBay, but then again there are a ton that aren't. Buying stuff from a authorized dealer is the only way to really be sure you are getting an authentic ite, as those vendors get their items directly from the factory most times.
 
I compared your pics side-by-side with the pics on the ZT web site, as well as two legit vendor sites - looks real to me.
 
cannot see anything wrong with it. Plus, anyone has ever seen a fake 0562cf?
 
Hate the feeling that your knife could potentially be a fake. Next time buy from authorized dealers or someone here on BFs! That'll help assuage the worries a bit more.
As for your knife, I think most people are saying it looks good, so congrats!
 
Thanks guys, I really appreciate it. You can probably tell by my registration date that I'm new here, so thanks for making me feel welcome!
