Hmmm...I was pretty pleased to see a stonewashed blade on this thing - is the coated blade going to be the only option when it comes out, or might you guys release the stonewashed blade also?
 
Maybe the blade coated blade will be a standard model?

And the stone washed version will be a limited release by a specific dealer??
 
Kershaw is doing incredible work right now. That 550 and the Speedform will be mine!
 
The only thing that concerns me is how much does it weight ? For those of you that want the intregal lock cutout on the outside - that may interfere with the pocket clip. The Strider SNG I have uses an outside cutout and it gets caught on the lip of my pocket every time I pull it out.
 
MAN i want one soooo bad.

they really knocked this one out of the park.

the only way i can see that you can make this better is putting a spanto blade on there!
 
Love this knife. I'm so glad it is not AO. I hope the big torx screws in the scales make it to the production version. Street prices around $200 and you can count me in.
 
This couldn't have come at a more perfect time. I was about to order a Strider SMF when I came across this thread. I have been looking for a knife similar to the SMF with a less hefty price tag. I like the ZT 3xx series but couldn't get past the recurve and the speedsafe. This looks like it's gonna fit the bill perfectly. Great job ZT!!!
 
Thanks for the comparison pics, Thomas. Just a little bit longer than an 0350 but with much more "heft". Excellent.:thumbup:
 
Good job, KAI. I'm pretty stoked about this and hope to see more knives along this line. Nice useful blade profile for general EDC, manual action, frame lock with some guts to it. Kudos to ZT and family. This is exactly what I needed for me to to jump back into the world of Kershaw and ZT ;)
