Want to get a ZT for my 3rd knife. 801, 562, 452cf or other?

That's a hard call, for me the 0452 is a little too large but "for me" 7" and 8" folders are what I like. I own both the 0801 and the 0562 and they are both exceptional. The 801 is a better flipper but the 562 is no slouch. For a working knife I prefer the 562 I have the G10 version, I thought about the carbon fiber but the G10 is really more practical as it is grippier and as I said I use it for work. Ergonomics on both are excellent, elmax on both, I have the BW version of the 801 so there is the cool factor. The way I see it is it's coin flip, can't go wrong with either of these so plan to get both.
 
The 0562 is one of the two folders in my current EDC rotation. The other being a 0620CF. I have been waiting for a deal on a 0452CF though as the design is impeccable. As for me and my hand, the 0562 is the single most comfortable knife I have ever handled. It just works. The 0801 not so much. I had an 0801S110V and it just did not fit my hand, so I got rid of it.
 
Of the three you listed, I like the 0562 more. If your preference is for slim, though, the 0452CF is hard to beat.
