Zing....is Here!!!

BIG MATT · Nov 23, 2008

Here is a pic of mine that I got this morning. I immediately became addicted to the flipper action. By far the best that I've had. Showed to some friends at work and they were surprised that it wasn't assisted by anything. It really does come out fast and does feel like a torsion bar is assisting it open. I really like it. Even the pocket clip is nice. Should have taken a pic of the spine. The spacer has slight waves that are different and very nice looking IMO. Now to make this my EDC and test the steel!

Great pic, I can' t wait to get myself a Zing, though I`ll probably have to wait a little while, since I live in Germany

Any chance of some more pics(pleeease)? I' m dying to see more of it

I'm waiting for the zing to have a black blade, then it will immediately be added to my list.

I didn't get the groove until the tanto version came out--RJ Martin designs incredible knives.

Thats a nice change of pace on the blade design.

Is the choil area usable in a grip?

Unfortunately I think the action on the custom is way better... But I don't think that'll stop me from picking up one of these as a stopgap.

Why don't you PM me your addy carrot and you can compare both side by side. You may be surprised.

SaMX · Nov 27, 2008

I'll take you up on that offer. I would appreciate a closer look at the Kershaw Zing.

By the way, there are so many things I "don't like" about the Shallot but for some reason it's always in my pockets. Why's that?

Because its awesome and you just havent realized it yet? Dont worry, took me a while to get hot on the Shallot as well...now I cant stop buying them.

The Zing is a sweet knife. BigMatt was nice enough to let me check out his new knife and they are wicked cool. It pops out as nicely as the R.A.M.'s I've handled. :thumbup:

senoBDEC · Nov 28, 2008

nice... pics in hand? perhaps a short video on opening?

SaMX · Nov 30, 2008

come on man, we've got to see some pics!

I'm really interested in the Zing, but I'd like to see what the clip is like, and how it looks in the hand.

Zing....is Here!!!
