I took it back apart and it's just a white sticker, nothing on it.... No idea why

Mine also had a white sticker inside. I have no explanation for it. I took mine out, which in hindsight wasn't a great idea since the adhesive left behind will now attract dirt and lint. Oh well... Anyway, it isn't the greatest flipper without the assist. Not nearly as good as the 566 anyway, the flipper is quite small and the blade is lighter than the one of the 566 which may account for it. It's not terrible by any means, just not great. YMMV
 
Mine just arrived - very cool EDC ! My first ZT. Flipper is a little stiff but I presume it will get smoother over time..

Blade shape is excellent, I just wish it had just a little more steep angle towards the tip (more reverse tanto/wharncliffe like XM-18 wharncliffe or Kershaw tilt) to improve penetration

- what do you think, won't it weaken the blade or tip ?

guys, is your 0770 stiff?? mine is very stiff, not sure if it's okay.. I need to put significant pressure on the flipper to flip the knife - tension is very high. I push so hard that when it flips my fingernail hits the scales. Is it the same for you ??

Not at all. Maybe take out the torsion bar and see how it flips
 
I will have to return it, it seems to be faulty :confused: my finger is totally sore

I just received my ZT 0770 and it also requires some force to deploy. Much more pressure on the flipper tab than the Kershaw Cryo, for reference.
 
I think the sticker is to keep the protect the liner from rubbing against the aluminum scale when depressed against it, that's my best guess.
