ZT 0350 or 0200 next?

Nice pictures!

Where did you get the 0551 blem?

#4058 on the 0200 wonder how many they have made? Mine is #250 from Sep 06. What year is yours? It looks undated so it is newer than July 09 or so. They must produce only about 1000 year. Makes the 0551 look not very limited. About 1400+ so far this year.;)
 
Thomas was nice enough to send me the 0551 blem, and I picked up my 0200 earlier this year from a seller on ebay. It is undated and I'm sure it's probably from 2010. I wish Kershaw hadn't stopped dating their knives.
 
anyone else think these zt knives are too big and too heavy?
I have been trying to get myself to order a 561 but these things are huge.
 
They are both great choices. I see it this way - if you prefer a larger, thicker folder with 3D contouring, go for the 0200. If you would prefer a smaller, slimmer folder that is easier to pocket carry, go for the 0350.

They're both worth having, and it really comes down to personal preferences. Both should hold an edge well and both are big enough for most tasks.

The 0561 is a big knife, but it is surprisingly light - much lighter than an 0300. This is due to the weight relief pockets in the titanium scale.

I would try to handle one before dismissing it due to weight. I realize that is difficult right now, but I think you will be pleasantly surprised if weight is your main concern.

The 0350 makes a better edc but you just have to try the 0200. It's amazing in every way.
