ZT0560 or Spyderco Para/Military?

I'm not so sure. I have a 550 and it's right at the top of my size/weight limit. It is Hinderer designed and all that smooth stuff, but I don't carry it. It's still NIB. I do have about 5 or 6 PM2's in various super-steels that I absolutely prefer. You can buy a PM2 for $100 or go all the way up to $400, depending upon which Sprint Run/Exclusive Dealer/super-steel you really want. And the compression lock is absolutely the nuts. Definitely get the PM2 unless you need to chop a forest.

The 560, while a little longer than the 550, is lighter.

I have all three and they wind up getting pretty equal pocket time because they are such different knives. If you already have a 550 id pick up a military or para-military first just because the blade geometry is so different and its nice to have some variety, but the 560 is just too nice of a knife not to have so youre going to have to get them all!

The Military is large but it's really light and pretty thin as well considering its size. If you don't have a lot of spydercos I'd give the military or PM2 a shot.
