Thanks Ram, it flips just as well as my ZT801 and better than the Southards I've handled. Sadly no 0562 in my life yet. Weight is 5.55 oz.

Mine came in a short while ago!

Very nice. Flips like a charm. Excellent fit & finish. Very smooth. Flat grind blade has a nice grind, centered, sharp and a little jimping. Excellent value.

  • Weight: 5.49 ounces
  • Blade length: 3.6"
  • Blade Thickness: 0.16"
  • Handle thickness: 0.54"
  • Handle width: 1.22"
  • Closed: 4.76"

Comparison pictures next to Southard, ZT 0801BW and ZT 0562CF.

Excellent comparison shots as usual. What measurement is giving you the handle width of 1.11"?

Corrected it to 1.22". I misread my own notes! Handle width is widest when closed.

The blade length is definitely not 3.5" but 3.6".

Gotcha, thanks for the clarification. I used the manufacturer's specs for the vid so yours are likely more accurate, although I did weigh it on my food scale.
