I was trying to trade my 0551 for an 0560 I was offered.
I thought it just had a messed up edge which I could fix.
Come to find out the whole blade is messed up with tons of scratches and scuffs on both sides, etc.
So now I'm thinking it's not a fair trade.

Scratches are no big deal unless it's a safe queen. When I get mine it's to be used and abused and all that. Besides you can always polish it out.

Bladechick if you love it why trade it?
Volund-If you like a big folder that is beefy yet fits great in hand, the 0560 is awesome. It is smooth and a big blade. Yet balanced well. Seemed light for it's size. Had a hollow feeling to it because everything is milled out inside. It was just too big for EDC for me. You wouldn't want to pull it out in a grocery store or many places public unless it's legal to carry. If you will use it for your job or you are an outdoor's man, perfect for hard use and such. It's funny how most people buy these big blades to just cut boxes or paper. But it's also anyones choice to use funds for whatever they want. Get what you want. Do with it what you want. Obvioulsy within reason.
I'm waiting to hopefully get a CRK Small Sebenza Insingo w/micarta inlays from a dealer friend at Blade. I have a NIB Small Sebenza I will probably sell soon for a good deal. I think everyone should have a great 3 inch folder along with something that is between 3.5-4" for harder use. Something for those EDC-casual to dress up moments. And another for the EDC-hard use. Of course that beater knife also. :thumbup:

I guess I'm trading it because I've wanted an 0560 for a long time.
And the reason I was worried about the blade being messed up is because my ZT 0551 is in just lightly carried condition and the value would have been a bit off.
But that's okay now.. because I have ZT 0560 + ZT 0350 Users Inbound! =]
