New ZT?

Hopefully shot show will bring some better offerings. Wallet is safe until then.

LOL whats up Gideons, I think we had this same convo last yr. Yep, plenty time to save up.

 

[Owen K.]

Meh. That is all.

I think it makes the 470 seem a lot better.

Nobody said anything about the 0456CF.

Kinda don’t really care for that either, although it does take almost 1.5oz off that knife....meh oh well, I got plenty of sprints this year with the 808, 95s, 609s and the 393s

 

[Murindo]

Classic Emerson but not my favorite design. I'm going to pass.

 

[MeritedEdge]

Not a chance. Hard pass.

Yeah I haven't been at all impressed with ZT as of late.

Wow that’s sharp! I may go for the 0456cf over the new release

The 0456 was a chunky little monkey. Curious to feel the new weight in hand on that one.

The Emerson design is a welcome addition. I think a lot of people (although not present in this thread) are going to appreciate a non-flipper to the lineup. Emerson does amazing work with ergonomics on his designs.

Looks like a liner lock BM 710....

Im not really feeling this new 0640 blade shape. Very generic. A little let down by the overall design as well.

 

[Cscotttsss]

Another disappointment from ZT, and that really sucks as their is so much potential.

 

[Lapedog]

Urine green.

Old hard boiled egg yoke green actually.

To be fair, this was an excellent and very forward thinking design when it was released back in the mid 90's. As a fan of clean, simple designs, I like this one a lot.

 

[jstn]

I actually kind of like the looks of this (except the green). Not enough to buy one, but it is different than the rest of their lineup.

 

[Lapedog]

I like the fact it uses pb washers.

Does anyone know blade length?

Website says 3.75

 

[Lapedog]

3.75 inch blade? I would probably go for it despite it not having a wave if it was 3.5 or less.

I’d really like to see a waved ZT Emerson closer to a cqc7 in size.

Probably pass on this one.

The 0456CF...now that is kinda tempting. I liked the original but being over 6 oz was crazy. This is much more like it.
