It was going to be beautiful too.
Large 21 with Bocote wood inlays and gold thumb stud.
I've already started putting money aside so I could pay cash for it, $485 is all I need.

Then Kershaw meets with Blade HQ at SHOT 2013 and makes a video showcasing their new offerings for this year:mad:

Now all my cash is going towards 3 new ZT models as well as a few others:D

Curses!!! foiled again....
 
I was kinda in the same boat. A new Sebenza, my first, for my 40th birthday. And now along comes the 0801..
I'll still get that first custom, it'll just have to wait a while.
 
I love the new offerings that ZT has this year. I've never had or handled a ZT, but my New Year's resolution is to finally purchase one. I just got to keep setting aside money, and hope I don't get too attached to some of the Kershaw knives. A ZT will be my most expensive I've ever purchased.
 
I recently picked up a small 21 off the exchange. Although it is an amazing knife it rides in my casual clothes as a backup to my 0560, haven't found anything yet that can kick that out of my pocket. So you will not be alone in uncontrollably buying up the new models :)
 
The Sebbies are alright but the Umnumzaan is where its at...

I had a large Insingo, but let it go. It was a beautiful knife, but the price, combined with CRK's "no flip" policy made me never want to carry it. Traded it for a Strider SnG and haven't looked back. I swear you can't even look at that thing without wanting to stab through a car hood. The F&F of CRKs is second to none, but I prefer a folder that inspires confidence regardless of what task I throw at it. Enter ZT and Strider. :thumbup:
 
Yup. If I were to ever buy one, I would probably trade it off because its too dang pretty.

Closest I ever came is an Alias 1. I traded it the same day I bought it.

I really want one just to see what all the hype is about, and would probably get rid of it soon after.

I've only been collecting about a year and only pay cash to avoid really stupid buys. For the money I am perfectly content with ZT / Kershaw.
I am trying to play catch up with some of their older models and now they hit me with some great new stuff.
