Need some knowledge- ZT Flippers

The great responses keep rolling. Thank you!

The knife will just be used for pocket carry and “normal” tasks. No food prep, and I don’t really use my knives in any kind of consistent way. They’re just for whatever I need to cut during daily life. At 5.5oz , the weight of the 562 is my main concern at the moment.

Also, some of you mentioned getting a Spyderco. I have never been able to find any of their models that appeal to me, so I haven’t looked very hard. I know they make a great knives.

I was looking at the 0095 and the 0562 last night and the only thing I don’t like about the 0095 is that it’s longer than the 562 in just about every way. I’m worried that i would have the same issue that I had with the 452.
 
0562 is great. i have a CF that came with a G10 scale also, put the G10 on and haven't looked back. very grippy and practical. knife action, smoothness, blade shape, tolerances all great, it hits way above its' weight class IMO. Much cheaper than several knives i own, but very highly regarded by me. i owned an 0452 for a little while and didn't care for it, an 0609 for a bit and thought it was nice if unspectacular, and had no pivot tool when i had mine. an 0350 was one of my very first knives, i got some joy out of it, but was pretty impractical. just for a little ZT perspective.
 
If you don’t intent to use it for food prep IMO the 0562 can deal with any other cutting tasks....

The weight of the 0562 has never been an issue for me. I am not a tall guy and I usually carry a small Inkosi at work and shift for a large rblade on week ends.
The pocket clip is great and for its size/weight the 0562 is quite thin

I am used to carry it in the front pocket of jeans and I never had any issue with its weight
