Zero Tolerance 0450 ZT0450 Sinkevich Design
The original Zero Tolerance 0454 was an award-winning collaboration between ZT and custom knife designer Dmitry Sinkevich. But it was also a very Limited Edition knife.
So ZT is doing something about that with the new 0450. While based on the originals streamlined form and high-performance function, this new and more compact version will be much more readily available. With its 3.25-inch blade and lightweight-yet-stronger-than-steel titanium handles, the 0450 has a sleek and sophisticated look that, we think, makes it a perfect EDC.
ZT built it with an S35VN stainless blade that sharpens to a razor edge, holds it well, and can be resharpened easily. The knife opens smoothly and easily with the KVT ball-bearing opening system and built-in flipper. A titanium frame lock with hardened steel lockbar insert ensures solid lock up. Polished pivot hardware just adds to the 0450's refined good looks.
Specifications
▪ Blade Length: 3.25" (8.3 cm)
▪ Handle Length: 4.1" (10.4 cm)
▪ Overall Length: 7.4" (18.8 cm)
▪ Blade Steel: S35VN Stonewashed and Satin Finish
▪ Handle Material: Titanium
▪ Designer: Dmitry Sinkevich
▪ Weight: 2.9 oz. (82.2 g)
▪ Made in the USA
I happened to see this knife on sale and this one was one of the best knife designers Dmitry Sinkevich. It is a recognized master of it and buy a knife from him practically impossible. If possible, it is expensive. ZT 0450 follows the design of the knife «Koordinal". Its a small copy. Of course the knife is made easier, but get quality. I could not find any defects or flaws. The blade is opened and closed very easily. Here, bearings are installed in a metal cage. It is enough to handle rough treatment - very practical. There will be no visible scratches. The blade has a satin - looks good. Knife is very light. I do not feel in the hands. The clip is well sits on the pocket. It can be installed on both sides. The size of the clip - is very big
. There are already on sale a compact and easy to clip this knife. Excellent - knife is ready to use out of the box. And it just looks cool. S35VN - good steel. Price is available to everyone. This knife is always possible to carry because of its dimensions.
For comparison, a photo ZT0450 vs F95. And a beautiful photo of the original «Koordinal».
