Hello all,

I just received a 0350 in the mail today(love the knife btw), and I noticed the blade says "Ken Onion Design" and nothing about Mick Strider on the blade nor the box. While the 0300 is a Ken Onion and Mick Strider design. To me they're basically the same design except for the TI slab and of course the size. So why isn't Mick's name on the 0350 series?

I had a 0300 a while ago so I'm going off memory and just got the 0350 so forgive me if I missed something obvious.

Hmmm...Just checking my 301ST I got a few weeks back...Ken Onion's name is on the blade, and Strider's is not.

Only "Strider/Onion" is printed on the upc sticker, not on the box itself.

Yup, that's what I meant. The 0350's UPC doesn't mention any names. I thought it was a bit odd to mention Ken by the blade etch and Mick's name isn't anywhere. No biggie, just curious. Thanks!
 
I guess either A: it was redesigned to be a smaller and he was not involved, or
B: It was overlooked when it was being made and htey just forgot to put it on the code.

My best guess is A. because it was redesigned.

Could also be a change to lessen the emphasis of the partnership... I swear ZT's website used to advert the partner designers of the 30*, whereas now on the ZT website Strider and Onion are not mentioned at all on the 30* and 350 product pages.
