They need to hit a homerun with this one, to redeem the epic disaster they call the 0223.

The 0223? Hmm, great materials and craftsmanship. Sure, the design may not be for everyone but it's still a rock solid knife. As far as an epic disaster, I'm still waiting on the numerous reports of blades breaking at the holes.
Did you by any chance pick one up??
As a "ZT purist", who's favourite knife is the 0301 and has owned dozens of ZT knives over the past few years... I'm going to have to disagree with your statement. Both the 0308 and 0357 were disappointments and not collaborating with Ken Onion was a huge mistake. Not saying they're terrible knives(as they aren't terrible), but not worth upgrading to/buying.Wile it may not have been a Homerun. From everything I've seen & read about it, I would say the 0308 was at least a solid double. Also, the 0357 was a pretty nice ZT-ification of the Kershaw Link. They were essentially what the ZT purists have been clamoring for the past few years. Big, hand filling, hard use folders.
No, if I wanted a knife that looked like that I'd head over to the gas station or truck stop and spend $4.99.
Well then, Driver, there is a Flying J about 50 miles that way - hope you enjoy yourself and keep on going.

I like a good Loves too - I thought the J would have just the kind of knife display the fellow was looking for though.Flying J? I only shop at Loves!
Something just looks off with the design. like the blade and handle don't go together.
