Dang, this is a tough crowd. Maybe a top-down view will at least buy me an "Attaboy." :D
If only 1088 were made, looks like I got in just before the whistle blew. Ser. #1078 on mine.

it's a nice one for sure! Good pickup Guyon, i'm carrying mine today. :D

I guess i need to start taking pictures of my knives.......yours came out pretty good. :thumbup:
 
You know now what THE collaboration of the coming decade is all about. The next 3 (0550, 0560, 0561) are going to be epic. :cool:
 
Awesome pics...my second is waiting for me in the PO Box at home. I'm still on vacation damn it!

Yeah, the ZT/Hinderer collab will be hard to beat for sure. They really raised the bar with this one.

I sent #161 for warranty work and got back #1127, so I don't think you got one of the last ones. I saw in another post Thomas said the numbers going 1000 is because of QC.

No clue. I read the posts again, and I still don't quite have it. I am just happy I got one.
Sounds, however, like you're right. Numbers went up to around 1200, and if 1088 is the total, quite a few did not make the QC cut.

My last fifty were almost all over 1000 and the highest number I had was about 1197 I think, do at least 1200 and I would guess 1500 or so.

Looks like the final tally is 1088 pieces.

Some didn't pass QC.
 
For me, the 0551 is one truly awesome blade....can't wait for the 0561! I don't think there will be a better folder for the money.
 
#0886 Just came in the mail today...i have never been so excited to see a yellow slip in my box! ran up to the counter in full battle-rattle, handed him the slip and waited...and waited....and waited. seemed like 4 years before this guy came back! Ran up to my barracks room, didn't even take off my rain-drenched ACU's and opened the box. And boy, what a knife this is! beautiful stone-washed finish. cool looking g10, feels great in the hand. and it flips open with a lot of authority. i love it. doesn't feel to heavy in the pocket, but it does take up it's fair amount of space! but overall, i love this knife and i am excited to see what it can do! gonna be on me 24/7 for the next couple of weeks!
