Does anyone happen to have pics of these two together? Interested in either, I have handled the ZT but haven't been able to find a Retribution. Just trying to determine if the Retribution is possible to carry in the pocket. I know it's not an EDC, but I like to carry a big knife at times.

I've got both. Both are too big to carry in light clothes, but the 0200 is a pocket-clip EDC, and a great ergonomic, heavy-duty knife. The Retribution I is absolutely huge. Most of my fixed blades have smaller handles. No pocket clip, it comes with the biggest belt sheath I've ever seen for a folder.

Go for the 0200. It's plenty big unless you're a giant.

I have handled both abd second Esav's opinion - Retribution is huge (i just love big folders, but the circumference of handle is just too big for me). Not for average hands. 
ps: both technic'lly are liner lock knives, but the are fat ones, more like framelocks :thumbup:

The funny thing is, the Retribution handle is great for me, I just don't have much use for that much blade.
