I'm having trouble deciding between these two folders. I've been looking long and hard at lots of folders and have narrowed it down to these two, each having their own appealing qualities. I love the ergonomics of the BM 710, and I love the price compared to $300 for the ZT 302. But I've been looking at the ZT because of its solid design and bad ass look. Really I'd spend as much as I'd have to for the Busse folder but sadly I'll have to wait. If money was no object which would be the ladder?
I'd get the ZT in heart beat if it didn't use S30V stainless, I've never actually owned a knife with this metal but have read and heard that it just doesn't compare with a high carbon steel like D2. I've also owned other stainless blades that just didn't cut it.
All I'm looking for is a really good quality folder that can take punishment and not fall apart, at least right away. Even if anyone has an alternative suggestion that would be great. I'd Love to hear what people have to say.
