Coming soon, who wants one? This knife keeps growing on me, I may give it a try!

A two toned 4" blade on a bling colored handle? Sure! I'll take one, if someone has an extra $500 laying around they aren't using and wants to give a knife away to a guy who, let's face it, has way too many knives as it is. Kinda reminds me of the Begg Field Marshall, but I like the more conventional blade shape better.
 
I like the blade shape, and handle is nice, upgrade the steel and I'd pay up to $275-$300 for one

What steel would you like to see in it? You are right though...I had misread. I thought it was CTS-204P not CTS-XHP. This is kinda mid-grade steel for a "Production Custom" knife.

I wonder if the colors will be as vibrant out in the wild. I hope ZT will release more pictures of it under natural lighting. On release day these will likely be long gone before anyone can post an in-hand picture.
 
I really like some of the exclusive ZT's I'm not as into this one but to be honest I just don't have time or energy to sit at my computer hitting refresh trying to buy one. The 0999 is a little more compelling to me but even for it I'm not going to kill myself trying to get one.
 
I think I'll stick with my Reate Valkyrie 2 which is similar enough, and doesn't have the (in my opinion) garish handle color. I like it, but not enough to pay $500, especially when I don't appreciate the anodizing or the value it adds.
 
This is actually one I've been really excited about for a long time. I think it's a home run from ZT and Martin.

Pass. Truth be told, I'm over Zero Tolerances in general. I have loved every one I've had, but I'm just not wowed by anything they make any more. That said, hey, at least this isn't yet another recoloring of that Hinderer Eclipse model they're doing their best to squeeze every dollar they can out of. :thumbup:

The only two ZTs I have left (I've sold all the rest) are my ZT 0562, and my 0452. Both are amazing knives, useful, and not too flashy. I don't plan on selling them.
 
I can't afford it, but as a production model with a 3.2-3.6" blade I would be interested. As is, it is a little too large for me. I like the shape of it, but the colors are not my favorite.
 
Think I'll pass too. I like the design and shape, but the finishing is too overdone for me. The hidden hardware on the show-side, other than the pivot, is kind of a neat feature though.
 
The design looks great and I'm a big fan of the two tone blades but the blue and gold looks hideous. Those were my high school colors and even way back when I thought that combination was terrible. All black with some maroon or deep blue highlights would've been more appealing, IMO. And if the price is over 250 they can count me out no matter what. RJ Martin's designs are almost always on point, I just think ZT has lost its way.
 
I'm too cheap to buy an exclusive ZT. Dig the grind though. Hopefully it'll make it into a production model.
 
I'd prefer tamer colors (less flashy and shiny) or even just plain titanium with CF insert and M390/CTS-204P over CTS-XHP with no DLC on the flats of the blade.
 
I love it. Especially the Custom Pivot. Can't wait to get one in my hands and carry it.

The backlash over the price tag is comical when China made pieces are fetching around $400 and aren't even close to this.

And if this was a Benchmade Gold Class it would be closer to a grand.
 
I think it's a beauty - I am a big fan of RJ Martin designs and this one is beautiful.

I can't wait to get my paws on one that is MINE instead of the protos at Blade - I love a nice, large folder, and this will be a nice addition to the collection to nestle in next to the 0600 -

It's hideous and too expensive. I hate the clown colors that ZT insists on using on the LEs. Make this thing in plain titanium at $300 and I'll think about it, but $500 for something that looks like it was finished by a 5 year-old, I'll pass.
