Just got my hands on the ZT 0777-M390BLK and I figured I'd share my thoughts after testing fondling it for a few hours.
I like...
...the looks; always been a sucker for CF
...the way she flips open and closes with authority; the strong detent is great
...the blade shape; wharncliffe with some belly
...adjustable/replaceable lock face
...good size to weight ratio
I'm not too crazy about...
...the pocket clip design; looks good but the pen pocket clip-like portion that meets the scale catches on the seam of my pocket making for unsmooth drawing and pocketing of the knife
...the pocket clip being fixed to the scale with no easy access to the retention screws
...the knife doesn't seem to be easy to disassemble (haven't tried yet)
...the ultra light handle making the knife a bit blade heavy
...the lack of a lanyard hole; it would make drawing the knife out of the pocket much easier
...the factory edge; on my copy of the knife it's got a decent edge near the tip but the heel of the blade is pretty much unsharpened
...the DLC coating is difficult to clean; never been a fan of blade coatings; oil seems to soak into the coating and it scuffs surprisingly easily
