Most lightweight and/or pocket friendly ZT?

770 is probably the most pocketable IMO, the now discontinued 400 was supposed to be really east to carry too. and the Talon model(i don't remember the number) was really slim too.

I had a 0400 for a long time and it was more pocketable than I had imagined. Heck I used that beast for work duty and would forget about it half the time. The 0750 Talon model is nice too if you don't mind the blade shape with upgraded s30V over the original Kershaw. Its probably the smallest of the ZT's to date. 0780 is another but harder to find. Kind of like a ZT skyline, nice skinny, pointy blade with manual flipper action and s30V.

Sounds like to me you would be better off trying the 0566 like your gut was telling though. Get it out of your system!
 
I've carried a couple of ZT's for a time, the 0200, 0350, 0551, and 0770.... They're all bricks, but none bothered me. The best for carry was the 0770. My favorite of the four, though, is the 0200 which is why it's still here in my pocket. :D
 
ZT 0780 is nice and light but it just doesn't flip well at all. Both 0770 and 0770CF are good choices. 0770CF should be out very soon.
 
I have a 0550 and 0350, don't consider either a brick. I also prefer cowboy boots to ballet slippers.
 
The 0770 and 0566 are both very pocket friendly. The 0750 and 0780 are as well, but those two are discontinued. The 0550 and 0560 carry deceptively well for knives of their size. They're still larger knives, so they'll definitely be more noticeable than, say, a Leek or Blur. My 2nd gen 0550 is actually more comfortable in pocket than my 0350. I switched to back pocket carry for my 0300 and 0350 on days I carry those. I haven't found a comfortable way to carry the 0200.
