My favorite knife lube is the Tuf-Glide Micro-bonding Dry Lubricant and Protectant and wondered it's safe to use on the KVT bearing system on the ZT 0560 at some point down the road if the pivot requires a bit of lube? I love how this stuff goes on wet to get where its needed but then becomes a dry lube that doesn't attract dirt, dust or sand. Wouldn't want to use it if it would damage the material that holds the ball bearings in the KVT system.

My 0560 arrived yesterday and I've got to give it up to ZT for once again truly raising the bar on what we should expect from a knife manufacturer at this price point. I was shocked at just how nice the 0551 is, especially for the money, I like it better than my sons Strider SNG. Once again you've outdone yourself with this 0560/0561.
 
Thomas confirmed a while back -- when the Tilt came out, I believe -- that you don't have to treat the KVT models any different from the ones with washers. So Tuf-Glide or any other commonly used knife lubricant should be good to go.
 
Asked a different question so thought it best to make another post since this had been answered.
