I wanted to know if any hogs or piglests could tell me which model this is???? I have not seen the knife in person and only have this one pic to go by. I was told the blade is sterile (With no markings for you jokesters) and has an O.A.L. of 13".

Anyone???

It looks like a special version of a ZTSH, maybe a extravaganza knife. That also looks like a Okuden kydex sheath.
 
Ducci,

My first thought was ZT, but I thought all of them were satin finished. Were some offered with a coated blade?

Yes some were offered with coated blades.
Plus the Terror Monkey's were all based on ZT knives with some serrated and some not.
 
Looks like either a ZT that's been double cut or a coated ZT that's been stripped... but it's a thin steel heart e series.... great user
 
I'll concur that it is one of the ZT series, can't tell much about the finish without a better picture. I would say it is not a Terror Monkey though as I believe those were marked. IIRC

:D:D
 
unless they sanded down the blade to get rid of the pitting+logo :D

do you have the blade on hand? is it urban grey coated, or dcbb?
 
It looks like a coated ZTSH, and yes there was a lot of coated ZT's.

Yu can tell if it is a Terror monkey by the thickness of the blade and the shape of the handle. The terror monkeys had more ergonomically shaped E-handles. Probaby the nicest E-handle design made. That one does not look like a terror monkey, just a std coated ZTSH
 
Nothing unusual aout that ZTSH. Except that it may have been bead blasted after the fact. I do not know of any DC ZT's, but you never know.

Here is a pic of a terror monkey handle compared to a regular e-handle

I'd agree with the above opinions, it's a ZT SH-E that has most likely been stripped. Lighting can play tricks though.
 
Looks just like mine, I had my ZTNO bead blasted. You can still barely see the logo. Maybe you just cant see it in that one becuase the pic is bad.
