I just got another 0561 in the mail today and I was surprised by what I found. I now have 2 561s and have had 3 different 560s They all seem to be a little different. Im sure this has been covered but I also just wanted to publicly thank Zt for all the awesome stuff they have going on right now. Does it get lonely at the top??;)

I had no Idea that the lock side has changed so much over time. my 561 with the bead blasted (?) lock side is number 0730. The new one with the shiny side is #1696 and the 560 (which is in the middle as far as sheen) is number 0538. Needless to say I thought it was awesome that they are all different. Also inside the lock bar cutout there was a circular hole cut out. Now it is a Longer oval, almost like the shape of the lanyard hole. All I can think now is Ill have to keep buying them to see what awesome changes you guys keep making. I love the knives truly a home run.

Any and all pics of the beautiful zt hinderer collaborations are welcome, just thought I would show you guys my findings.
The pictures dont show it as well but the bottom 561 is a lot brighter than my 560.

I have both and I think they nailed it with the 0561..The finish on the Ti side is just amazing and It just looks better overall
 
Jfoley4-I just got home from work and my 561 had been delivered!!!!!!!!:) This new 561 has the same oblong cutout on the lock bar as yours were my 560 doesn't. I also noticed the 561 doesn't have the sharp edge on the right side of the flipper that my 560 had (good job ZT) for that improvement. The 561 is butter smooth, not to much breakin to do, the lock bar almost looks like it has the carbonizing done? Very pleased with the 561.
 
I prefer the 561 but just because I like the brown. I know that the website that sells a KNIFE that is ARTsy has 561s in stock.

OLdbugr. I agree it is very cool to see zt make little changes. imagine that a company that listens to their customers...
