ZT 0350 lockup issue?

[jeffsenpai]

Hi all,

I bought a blem ZT 0350SW from Kershawguy, who delivered outstandingly fast.

The knife is gorgeous, but I want to make sure that the liner lock is engaging the blade fully. Is this normal:

I understand that it is a blem, so if the liner lock was the issue with it I will just deal with it I suppose, maybe taking it apart, cleaning and reassembling will help?

Look like an early lock up to me. Which is good

Your Good to go.

As long as it is not just on the edge (super early), you are good. The far extreme all the way across (super late) can also be bad if it has lock rock, meaning it is not fully engaged against the blade. Yours looks great though! now go cut something!

it should wear in, flip it open a bunch of times.

I would be fine with that lock up.

Thank you all for the replies, I feel better now and more knowledgeable

IMHO that's about perfect lockup out of box, gives it a good range to wear in.
