So, I'm thinking about buying a new folder with a 3"-3.5" blade, and I'm debating on either waiting for the ZT 0566 or getting an Emerson Mini Commander. What do you guys(and gals) think? I'm open to other suggestions as well.
 
I'm carrying the 566 for a week now and I love the blade. Excellent build quality, great feel and really functional. It will be available soon in other places so you don't have to wait long
 
I have been waiting on the 566 for a long time. It will be a great knife and from the reports from the guys who have been lucky enough to get one already (overseas already has them available) they seem really impressed. So I think the 566 is worth the wait for sure
 
I also carrying the 0566 for a good week now. Did today some wood cutting and carving. The 3th gen Elmax performed verry well! Was still shaving sharp after cutting the dryed wood. I put a mirror polish on the edge with the Edge Pro and is scary sharp now. The knife feels solid and has no hotspots after cutting for 15 minutes. I can recommend it!
Here is a small first impression review I made with the Para 2 as comparison.
