If they keep it as close to the prototype as possible and keep the price point $50-100 north of the 0566, it will be the best selling knife in ZT's lineup. I hope ZT is prepared to keep up with the demand, my guess is that they will not be able to make them fast enough. Just looking at the pictures of the 0562 has relegated my 0566 to red-headed stepchild status. Hope we don't have to wait as long on this one as we did for the 0566.

LMFAO.!!! I just got a 0566, and I think it's pretty cool. Seriously. BUT it being a 'red-headed step child' of the 0562 is absolutely perfectly stated. I'm going to laugh myself to sleep tonight. Couldn't have said it better. I want that 0562(cf) in a bad way... Love the handle, the grind, the overall design...and m390,?? sheesh.... Better go tuck the remainder of my 'red-headed step children' into bed for the night.

Because tomorrow they are ORPHANS...
 
That knife is a winner. The CF M390 one is for me.

Is the weight known yet? Couldn' t see anything about that.
 
Isnt it against the rules to post porn in here? Guess not..
Ive had the time to read and take a closer look on the pics, and wow..
Im speechless.. M390, dat pocketclip,dat grind, dat lockbar steelinsert.
I dont have any m390, and i wasnt sure what knife to buy with that steel, but in pretty sure i have found it now.. :)

most inovative knife brand on the market, period.
awesome products ZT.
 
I do not care to much for some of the new Kershaws coming out, but Kai I think will do great with the ZT line. I am looking forward to this knife and the other new ZT knives. Looks like i will have some new knives to customize.
 
That is dang good lookin'! Love the m390 option, though I'd probably get the regular if I did end up getting one.

MSRP for the 0550 was $250, and street price right now is about $150. If the g10/elmax version of this ended up at $150 that would be a KILLER! :thumbup: No one could keep that in stock
 
The 562 fits half way between the 566 and 560 in terms of blade length.

566 Specs:
Blade Length: 3.25 in. (8.25 cm)
Closed Length: 4.45 in. (11.3 cm)
Overall Length: 7.70 in. (19.6 cm)
Weight: 5.3 oz. (150.3 g)

562 Specs:
Blade Length: 3.5 in. (8.9 cm)
Closed Length: 4.8 in. (12.2 cm)

560 Specs:
Blade Length: 3.75 in. (9.5 cm)
Closed Length: 5 in. (12.7 cm)
Overall Length: 8.8 in. (22.4 cm)
Weight: 5.8 oz. (164.4 g)
Hmm, this seems more in the size range of the 0801 or 0550. A little too big to EDC for me, the 0566/0350 is about as big as I'd like to go. I might buy one anyway just 'cause it's so sweet looking. Or I could just wait until it's released and everyone is selling off their 0566s for cheap :D
 
Love it! Not a big fan of the CF version but gorgeous knives either way. I'm glad ZT is making more EDC sized knives. The 0566 size is just perfect and they should continue to put out similarly sized models.
