So a while back some one did a poll about which of the new ZTs for 2017 people were going to buy. I am curious did you stick to your guns or change your mind once they hit the street?
 
I planned to get the 0920, and I got it and love it. Not a flipper guy, but the 0920 is too good to pass up.
 
:( None. It is part of the reason I am selling off the portion of my collection which gets no use. :D
 
0850 been and gone.
My M390 0452 just can't be beat, and until it is I'll just admire the new models from afar.
 
0850, 0055, 0920.

All of them are great, I have since sold the 0920 (wasn't really different enough to justify keeping). I think the 0850 and the 0055 are gonna stay for awhile, they are great knives. All 3 of them make excellent EDCs as well, they are very light for their size and the 0055 and 0850 in particular are slim in the pocket. The pocket clips on all 3 function great.

I have to say though, the 0055 is a hell of a knife for $220...for what you're getting it's a steal. The 0920 is an incredible value for what you're getting as well. ZT is stepping it up every year and I cannot wait to see 2018's line up.

I was planning on getting the 0850 and 0055.

But I've lost interest in the 0850.

I still want the 0055. I hate flippers but this flipper looks quite different with its unusual trigger.
 
None. I'm generally a fan of ZT, but none of this year's models struck my fancy. Only ZT purchase this year was a 0095 - love it.
 
Nothing from this year really appealed to me. My very selective ZT collection consists of the following:

I did change my mind. I was going to get the zt 0460. But then I noticed it was a smaller version of that sinkevich design and I found even full sized poluchetky designs to be less than comfortable. I will check it out if I see it in person but I didn't want to risk ordering one and then having to resell if my suspicions were true. I just haven't been feeling any of the designs with the exception of some of the super limited run stuff. And even then not enough to be worth the effort for me.
 
Got the 0055 and 0920 from this year and picked up the m390 452, cf 0770, 0900, and seriously eyeballing the 0095. The 0900 is sold off as it did not sit well with me. Would looooove a 392 but just don't see them being worth the price they go for.


Love them all.
 
too many smaller blades out this year. sure i realize many to most prefer under 3.5", but i just dont. 460 would have been a definite but too small at 3.25" for me. same with the 450's. now the 920 i do like but waiting until i have funds and maybe some factory sprint or whatnot anodized pop up.
 
The ZT 0095 was the only one I purchased this year. While I really enjoy all the Zt models that I own, I'm at a point if I am going to purchase a Zt for $200-300, I'd rather just spend a little more and get a Hinderer or Crk.
