I have a ZT 0450 that I absolutely love. I've added a custom 3k carbon fiber scale, anodized titanium screws, anodized titanium pivot, anodized titanium standoffs, Skiff bearings... Pretty much the works. I love the knife.
What I didn't love was that it would literally remove skin from my index finger after a day of using/flipping it. My finger would be so sore after a day of carrying it that I basically couldn't carry it two days in a row. Eventually I just stopped carrying it altogether. That sucked considering how much I liked every other aspect of the knife
Enter Chip (

The knife is now very smooth, and an absolute dream to flip. Fantastic action and a phenomenal detent! I've been playing with it non-stop since I got it back.
If you're in need of any work/tuning done on a knife (not to mention engraving, anodizing, or regrinds), I highly recommend
