I'm a small sized Asian guy, thus i have hardly ever considered buying a ZT knife because some i've seen some of you big and tall people complain about it's weight. My first ZT folder was a 0350 (not yet a brick), but i sold it off because the handle felt uncomfortable. But after seeing so many pictures off the 0200in this forum, i pulled the trigger. Although i have an XL espada, the built and size of the 0200 folder made me go ''S*** dammit!'' The built of 0350 doesn't even come close to the 0200. The 3D machined scales are really impressive, and they provide a secure grip. Flipper and thumbstud works so well and smooth that it made me actually consider getting another 0200 instead of waiting for the 0560. So, here are the pictures. Enjoy :D

The lock is well made- locks up tight and is easy to disengage although access to the lock looks limited.

Somehow the big handle fits my tiny hands really well.

Comparing its size with other large tactical folders.

If you think that the manix2 is big, look again.

Open pillar construction for easy cleaning.

Overall, im satisfied with the knife. However, i can't screw the clip in tip up carry configuration. It seems like the holes are not drilled properly, and my 0350 has the same issue. I emailed ZT, and they replied me in a day and telling me the spare screws and clip are on the way to me. Excellent customer service and warranty ZT! From today onwards, i'll bet my life on the 0200. Oh yeah 1 last point to make: for those who have not bought the 0200 because of the recurve, go add a sharpmaker together with the 0200 in your cart. And checkout :D
 
Congratulations with your new purchase. The ZT0200 is an excellent knife, although I think it's too big for the pocket. If I for some reason need a knife that tough, I've got fixed blades that are lighter than my 0200!

I also had a 0350...the fit and finish was excellent just like the 0200, but the handle was a bit too short for my liking , so I sold it off .

Great pics! The ZT 0200 is my favorite production folder in the 'tactical' genre, regardless of price. I also think it's one of the best folders ever produced, regardless of genre. Which dealer did you get your replacement parts from?

I agree, the 0200 is really of great value. I got the replacement parts directly from ZT knives
 
Congrats on getting such an excellent piece of cutlery. The ZT0200 promises to be a modern legend!!:thumbup::)
