I was reading "love for the 0301" thread. It got me thinking since the Grayman Satu is now available and the specs and design are very similar I would love to see a first hand comparison from owners of both who really use them.

I have owned both and still have the Satu. They are both great knives but trust me when I tell you the Satu is MUCH larger than that ZT. The ZT is more practical for EDC and the speed safe assisted opening works great...but with that said the Grayman is an absolute tank and I'll keep it long term no doubt. Hope this little bit of info helps.
 
Yeah It sure looks massive next to the 0350, so I'm sure its bigger then a 300

I'd love to get my hands on one for a comparo

How much does it cost? To me it looks like a cheap Chinese knife you'd get off of the bay.

to be honest, its not a good looking knife at all. it really has a rudimentary look about it.
 
I am seriously considering an OD g10 Satu. Either that or a 0301. I really miss my 0300 so that's why I wanted some first hand opinions.
 
Below is my Ti Satu which I highly recommend - it's quality IMHO and I'm a big fan of quality. MADE IN THE USA

those Grayman Satu's are really sweet looking. looks pretty beefy.........I may need to try and save up for one. :thumbup: how has the fit and finish been?
 
Fit and finish are great IMHO. It actually carries much better than you would think, a little slimmer than the xm-24.
 
just got my grayman satu od green and man it is huge but as I have carried it today it has grown on me and I love it fit and finish are great I probably wouldn't trade it for 2 striders yes it's that good
 
I got my Ti-Ti Satu this week, it is HUGE! I love it! Totally different animal than my ZT 0300.
 
I just received some leather for my Satus so I am bringing an old thread back to life. My 2 Satus (Ti-Ti version and Carbon Fiber version).

Satus with a ZT301 for comparison.
