ZT 0452CF - Lefty Handle Concerns

[johisey]

I've been looking at the 0620cf for a but just discovered the 0452cf and my be changing my mind, but have some concerns.

Is the left hand side JUST carbon fiber, no frame liners? How does the left hand clip attach, are there nuts recessed in the carbon fiber for the screws to grab? All joking aside is it practical for a lefty to carry?

Thanks for reading and any advice!

As a lefty you'll have the presentation side carbon protruding from your left pocket. Envious.
No liner but there are metal threads in the screw holes so no worries there.
I find it's easier for me to flip open left handed. Probably because it's more of a natural position to keep my big fingers off of the lock bar.
Overall it's a light, thin, easy to carry knife. One of my favorites from ZT.

You'll be happy with it.
There have been a few with lockup troubles. If you get one of those ship it back till you get a good one.
Mine is perfect and is probably the only knife I've owned that hasn't required a bit of maintenance. No lube, no tightening, no pivot adjustments, nothing other than sharpening. I've used this one a lot and zero play!
