Hey folks,
I am selling my Hinderer Designed 0566 ZT knife.
This knife was actually the first purchase I made on Blade Forums. Since then, I have developed a rapidly progressing addiction! But seriously, I hate to see it go. I purchased the knife in the first week of May, and I literally had it in my pocket for 2 hours...around the house. I opened a bag of dog food with it is all. THIS is all of the cutting this edge has seen from me. The knife came to me factory sharp--it'll shave your arm-- and I have put neither stone nor strop to this little beauty. No markings, no scratches, it's like new, without the box.
The knife sports a blue fiber-twilled custom scale (I did not make it or purchase it) and it really, really pleases the eye. I received the knife and the scales were impressive, but it was lacking dimension. I added a very light coat of clear lacquer to the scale, and now you can look into and forget what you were doing. It really is entrancing! The knife came to me with titanium blue screws, but they were scratched and nearly stripped, ultimately taking away from the overall aesthetics of the knife. I replaced them with factory screws from ZT. The standoffs are anodized blue, as is the low-rider clip.
The knife locks up solidly at 30-40%, solid as any ZT I've held, blade is perfectly aligned in the center even with the pivot tuned perfectly. I removed the speed-safe pin, but will be included (if you don't know, this is an extremely easy mod). I gave it some CRK fluorinated grease and now she flips freely, and with authority. Pics down below.
I am asking what I paid, even with the improvements. $old PayPal only. I did not receive it with a box, but will package it safely. USPS priority. Please Friends and Family it or add the standard 3.5% for goods and services. "I'll take it", gets it. My gmail, if BF doesn't work: rwasick88@gmail.com. I would consider only a Mnandi (this knife obviously being a down payment toward it), or a ZT0450 Thanks for looking and email me if you want more pictures.
