I was initially hesitant about buying a ZT 0770 because, in my experience, aluminum handles wear so badly.
I have had an 0770 about a month now, and all I can say is that this knife has the toughest aluminum handle I have ever seen! Despite carrying it in a pocket full of keys, pens, coins, and other pocket knives, my 0770 has shown almost no wear. The great handle, combined with the light weight and flat grind make this knife the most EDC friendly ZT I know of. Compared the 0566, the 0770 has a slightly comfortable handle, but I have gotten used to it. I also think the 0770 has a much more use blade grind.
 
I'll second your thoughts on the toughness of the handle coating. Mine has only chipped a tiny bit when I dropped it in the gravel it it was stepped on and ground into it a bit.

It's a great blade!
