Just picked up as ZT 0393 because I like the looks of the knife with the shape of the blade. I decided to sell it due to its size and weight after having it for 1 day. Looking through my assortment of knives (ZT 0566) I felt that I could change the shape of the blade to look similar to the ZT 0393 blade. This knife has been skeletonized (if that's a word) about 1-2 years ago which has made it lighter and the blade is a bit smaller then the ZT0393. I spent about 1 1/2 - 2 hours to finish it. Hope you like the modification. It was fun to do and expect to use it more then before. Granted it does not have the same good looks but a fun mod all the same.

Looks awesome. One thing, a spanto is a thick tip blade. Spear point tanto. You made a harpoon blade.

That was the shape of the existing blade that came with the knife. Maybe tomorrow a little more work is needed. Thanks for the compliment.
