Its a ZT 0700 for 98.95..Not a huge Tanto guy but for the price should i get it or pay little more for 0350
Anybody have a 0700 and how do you like it

I say go for it! I actually like the tanto on the 700. I wouldn't buy one because for my uses I can't seem to use a tanto for edc. Looks like an awesome knife though and I have heard nothing bad about them.
 
I say go for the ZT0350. Its only $15 more since you're not a tanto guy. I just got the ZT0550. Great knife. I can recommend u the guy I got it from.
 
I have an 0700 that is actually for sale right now. I got it in a trade a couple days ago but have decided that I really want an 0560 like my friend has. It is actually a nice knife with a good feel in the hand but I just want something with a little bit larger blade. If you are a thumbstud kind of guy I think you will really like the studs on the 0700 since they are slanted and have gimping on them. Great knife for around a hundred bucks. Send me a pm if you want to check out mine. It's brand new in box and I may be able to work with you on the price
 
I have that same version, It's a great knife. Same sturdy build as the rest of the ZT's. Haven't carried it, so I can't speak for how well it handles EDC tasks, but if you like/don't mind tantos, grab it! The sale price is hard to beat.
 
You can't get your 2nd, 3rd, or 4th ZT until you get your first :). My advice though, is to get a knife you really like instead of getting one because of it's price, just to get into the brand. I can almost guarantee you that you will like the 0200 or 0350 (you will like either/or, not both. I couldn't stand my 0350's because the handle was too wide and too short) over the 0700. Try and handle them first, ergos are a very decisive difference. Assisted vs manual is also another consideration.
 
Agreed. Get a knife you are going to want to carry. I was of the same mind, wanting to get in cheapest. Instead, I went to the 0200 since it had nicer ergonomics and I had enough flat slab G10 (JYD II, for example).

I've strongly considered this deal today as well, but decided against it as I just bought a 561 (and it isn't even here yet).
 
I'd go for the 0350, but I'm also not a big fan of tanto blades. Kershawguy has some great pricing right now on both the regular 0350 and the tiger striped version (personally, I'd go for the TS one). Check out his sales thread here, and e-mail him for the special pricing on the ZT's. It's not much more than you're looking at for the 0700.
 
I figured i'd get the 0700 based on price if i didn't like it i could sell it.But i'm gonna hold off until i can actually handle the knife i choose..Thx everyone
 
Kershaw guy has the 0350TS for $8 more, and thats shipped. I think I saw the same 0700 you did and I dont think that includes shipping. Id go for 0350 while its still at a low price.
