I'm new here and don't know if this has been brought up before, so sorry if it's a dupe.

I called Kershaw earlier today regarding a warranty replacement I've been waiting on for several weeks. I have been waiting for a ZT 0300 replacement, and it should have arrived some time this week, but when I called today I was told that there aren't any coming any time soon. Mine is still backordered, but like ALL ZT knives, may not arrive this year!

Has anyone else heard anything about this? The woman I spoke to indicated this was new info, and hopefully it'll change, but I was a bit shocked.
 
Production is tough, but moving in a positive direction. I'm sure you will have your knife sooner than later.
 
The owner of GPknives told me about 2 weeks ago he wasn't expecting any ZTs in for 3-6 months.
He does have a few 301s in stock now. He got the 301s in a couple of days ago........... Almost everything else is out of stock.
 
I ordered a ZT 0551 from Knifecenter on Feb 7, 2011.
All along I've been told I was still getting it (anywhere from "any day now" to "first week in May").
Contacted them today and was told now it is going to be at least two months.
I'm pretty irate over KC stringing me along for months as a faithful customer when I could have just bought one elsewhere.
Does anybody know where I can get one now?

Just thought I'd update my story to write that my zt0300 showed up quite unexpectedly the other night. Wonderful knife, and good news that ZT knives are (at least somewhat) coming out of production. Thanks Kershaw/ZT/ Kai!
 
The wait is worth it in my book. ZT knives are serious business! Digging my 0350 as edc (just got a Skyline yesterday to rotate out some).
