The award-winning Zero Tolerance 0777 has been officially retired. While we did get a short production run of 0777s into the marketplace, we did not meet our target goal and the number of knives we had hoped to produce.

While we understand there will be disappointment, unfortunately there were some issues with the 0777 blade material that kept us from manufacturing to our intentions. Manufacturing and technology can be a difficult challenge, and the 0777 was our most demanding knife we've ever produced.

As an alternative, we will be offering the 0777M390...

I dunno about you guys, but I had given up hope on ever getting my hands on a 0777 at a non-collector's price, but hope springs eternal!

I do like the extra info though, I hope they release the total 0777 production number at some point now that it's officially discontinued.

As with every Zero Tolerance knife, each piece will be individually serial numbered. MSRP on the 0777M390 will $450, and it will begin shipping in August, 2013. Our target production number will be approximately1300 pieces. We should be finished manufacturing those by September, 2013.

Indeed. Like the 1,300 production run on the 0777M390.

There will be as many as they make and they will ship them when they ship them. Have we not learned from all this before? Lets not go there please. :)

I'm looking forward to getting the 0777M390. I was reading through the page on ZT's website & saw this before the last picture on that link: "Here is the new "0770M390" with its premium M390 steel."
I think it was a typo, but didn't know how to tell ZT about it so they can fix it. Didn't want me telling them about a typo to be the first comment on that announcement.
 
If the production run is 1300 for this version alone, then it surpasses the order fulfillment of the original version 777 which was 1000. Great news for everyone who is interested in this knife.
 
I imagine the prices on the composite blade 0777s will skyrocket once these are released. Gotta get mine asap..

Respectfully, if ZT puts out "Inside Information" for the public on their website then we're doing all a courtesy by disseminating that information widely.
