ZT Emerson Collaboration

[Tactile sTyle]

What you all think?

 

[Liquid Cobra]

That looks pretty amazing I see they are doing a kershaw collaboration too. I wonder if there will be a spyderco one as well?

 

[Locutus D'Borg]

I'll take one. Emerson design with ZT quality - can't lose.

Looks good design wise. Weirdly even with kai top notch fit and finish....kinda prefer it built by emerson. Thanks for sharing.

Here is a pic of a different edition, its the ZT 0620:

And the lockside:

A huge improvement over the recent overpriced, blinged-out ZTs. Takes an Emerson touch to bring them back in line.

Will these come with uncentered blades and loose detents? Too soon? I dig the design.

Wut? Prices are pretty much right in line with other ZT offerings. Actually, the price is identical to the new Hinderer ZT 0562.

Exactly. Even better if ZT did an exact copy of the CQC8. I would S@@T myself.

 

[SOC_MRN_Leon]

I. Want. That!!!

It looks like a glorified Kershaw Brawler.
I'll pass.

you mean like the 600? the 777? how about the 888?

Those are all nice, but also all LE. Their full production line is priced right about the same as the new Emerson collab. Except for a few notable exceptions that are less expensive.

I might need one...

I totally agree with you. I haven't been crazy about any knife designs lately but this one looks really nice.Emerson designs are great but is have had qc issues with them so hopefully zt will fix that up!

I'll take 2 of the CF variant. A great addition to my matched set collection.

I hope you do a Super 8 collaboration!

I second this, I love all of Ernie's designs but the quality of the knives does not even come close to ZT.

On the ZT Emerson model I miss the lanyard hole. Which is a "must have" in my opinion. That would be my only reason not to buy it. Everything else looks great.
Besides: On the ZT hinderer Version i personally like the deep riding pocketclip better.

No lanyard hole is a deal breaker.
