I had Zt 560 RC tested 61.5

@ the OP, what's the serial # on your blade?

He said there's no serial number because it was a replacement blade from ZT. He didn't say when he sent it in (that I can see). I'm assuming that that was recent. I can't recall if someone ever did say what serial number any steel issues were changed at.

If the 0560-561 didn't have as aggressively textured Ti and G10 (like on the carbon fiber models or the 0550), as well as slightly toned down jimping, I'd probably own one. Knives don't need that much texturing to be secure in hand*, even with gloves.

*The statement I made is just as absurdly relative as yours BTW.

I understand where you're coming from. My niece made the exact same complaint, and is going to stick with her Victorinox Cadet.
