Hello,

I just got my ZT 0561 in the mail and I'm pretty impressed. I carried a spyderco millie for about 6 months and I'm afraid that the ZT might boot it from my pocket.
I really like the feel of the 0561. Its my second framelock (1st being a 0301). I have a small knife collection and I'm pretty rough on my knives. I'm wondering if picking up a 0550 makes since or is it going to be to simaliar to my 0561.

Thanks,
Marc
 
After I got a 0560, I don't think I've carried a 0550, I just dig the longer blade, and it's a cool flipper, ZT hit the 0560(1) OUT of the park.

Get into a store and handle one, or ask on this forum to find one near you to look at. I don't use mine, but I'm going to keep them in the collection, new 0550's are coming down in price and it's a SOLID knife. It's a tougher knife to deploy, it's always the knife my friends go to, sooner or later they will learn it,lol.

Since you have a 301 and 0561, I think it's time for a 302, a 0550, and a 0551, I know you'll be smiling!!!!!!

I went the opposite way. Started with the 560, which is a fantastic knife, and then got a 550. Didn't take me long to sell the 560 and get a second *coughthirdcough* 550. It just fits my hand so much better than any knife I have come across to date.

The 550 didn't do much for me. Just seemed too plain.
The 560 changed the game.
Big ol' slab of ELMAX combined with a flipper and KVT bearing system = Winner.
 
Love the 561 I got a week or two ago. I think it will hold me over on buying a hinderer. I plan on looking at the 550 in hopes that it will do the same with a strider. Most likely ill end up with all of them though :)

I own three ZTs; 301, 350 and the 261. The 261 is my favorite but its a "best of the best" type of situation for me. The other two are great knives as well.
