Kershaw/ZT Picture Thread!!! Let's See Em'!

I got my Highball XL Titanium in and I’m completely underwhelmed.
Quality seemed crap. Hardware was garbage.
Blade wasn’t centered, detent was crap, action really sucked. Just crap for $130. Back it goes. Another WE already inbound.
I hate to say it but WE, CIVIVI, Kizer (even QSP and SENCUT) have ruined me at this price point. $130 goes a long ways towards a WE knife (or even a ZT) that is leagues better than this thing.
Ya better get your crap together KAI! The last 3 or 4 knives from Kershaw have been less than stellar. They can’t get away with it much longer. The last ZTs I have bought (new models) have been typical awesome ZT quality, but a lot of folks are over their design direction. I think KAI needs a reboot and get back to making good stuff again. Something bad is definitely going on at KAI.
YMMV
 
At this point I almost buy ANY ZT or Kershaw model that’s manual just to try and help sway them away from all these dang SpeedSafe knives. Lots of good knives otherwise ruined with SpeedSafe.

Dangit. Now I’m going to have to buy this thing! Wish they’d have kept the blue hardware or gone all silver. Maybe it’ll be better in person.
Hmm, I'll have to start buying all their speedsafe models just to offset your anti assisted prejudice! ;)

Not sure what you were expecting, you bought a PRC made Kershaw, of course it's crap...
Kershaw needs to go back to an all USA made, all assisted lineup!
