Not easy. There was a whole lot of Goolge translating going on in my search. Fortunately the dealer I bought it from was fluent in English so the purchase itself was easy.

Haha...I just done a quick google search myself. The google translate works about 80% of the time, the rest is gibberish. Need to find some russian friends.

Congrats Cerucker. Very nice and worth the quest.

You and Poolhustler are the only ones I know of who have all four in the 0777 series.

I have a feeling that a few exist in China too. I felt less comfortable targeting there because knockoff 0777's are made in China.

No, but ZT exports knives to other countries that we cannot get here.

Congrats! I saw earlier that you were searching for it - I'm happy for you that you tracked it down!

I don't think any of the BW0777's went to China.

Found a couple at one time. I have no idea if they are legit though.

Sonnydaze · Jul 25, 2014

If they are so nice, and we are willing to buy them, then why is ZT sitting on their hands?
I realize this is not all that unusual, but these are nice folders!

Because ZT only has so much magical fairy dust to go around.
