Hey fellow BF'ers,
I just thought I'd share some pics of my ZT 0566 that I modded up a lil bit. I installed titanium screws on the scale and lockside, put on a titanium deep carry pocket clip, swapped the old steel LBS out with a titanium one and lastly I went to work on the blade with a dremel and am quite happy with the resulting choil, nice for choking up on the handle some for better control. I also de-assisted the knife by removing the torsion bar and polished the washers and the result is a rock solid knife with a buttery smooth action, the detent actually holds the knife in place quite well so the blade really does snap right out with authority.
The only downside to this project is that during these modifications I managed to scuff the stonewashing and had to scotch brite and polish the entire lockside of the frame which wasn't at all the look I was going for but I'm happy with the overall difference in aesthetics and functionality. let me know what you guys think. Thanks for looking. Dusty
