First off I would like to say that I love this knife, compared to the all of the mainly,BM, axis lock knives I have this feel like it is in another class of solidness(if that's a word). I was just looking for some lowrider pocket clips, they made them for the first gen 0550 right? I also wanted to double check that I won't void some sort of warranty by taking it apart(the blade is not exactly centered) I mean most of you guys are tinkerers so I am assuming it won't but just wanted to double check:D

Anyways I am super stoked on my first zt and can say it will be difficult to not go crazy and get like 2 or 3 more, I am already looking :eek:

Thanks for the help in advance and sorry my mind is mush on mondays
 
My 550 is the knife I carry most when I'm not carrying my XM-18. Congrats. Its a keeper.
 
You've made a wonderful purchase. Now beware, you have entered into a world that you can't escape! You will soon be wanting them all!
 
yeah no joke, before i got this one I was really looking at a 700, for some reason that tanto just looks toooo enticing
 
I just picked up a 550 Gen 2 yesterday and like it it a lot. It wil be one of my smallest edc's with it's 3.5" blade but i really like the smaller size coupled with the 6 ounce weight gives it a very sturdy feel.

I edited to add that it is my first S35VN blade and I'm really curious to see how well it does. It came with a hair popping edge out of the box with a nice high grind!
 
yeah the 0550 feel so solid, usually i am not partial to blades under 4(the SOG Spec Elite II has a 5) but it feel so solid and the curve fits the hand so perfectly
 
Oh Ive been a ZT fan for a while now. ZT0200's, 0500's, 0300 series,0350, but currently only a ZT0200, 0560, the new 0550 gen 2, AND the ZT0600 that is being held for me until the 30th of this month.
