I already had a ZT0350, but I like this blade finish better. Great little folding survival knife, IMO. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/park022_zps797e10f4.jpg)
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

Maybe not quite as big as the 511, but yeah it's pretty good size. I ALMOST bought another one off ebay a few months back.

Oh and Rich, I have read that there two rules you MUST follow if you use a Karambit.
1. DO NOT spin your karambit.
2. See rule one! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Rich, I figure they won't let you carry your K-bit inside your work area, but if they would, you won't find a better blade for opening up blister packs of meds. that point will poke a hole and then the edge will stay in the slice until you have cut all you want to.
NOW that you have your new work blade, you need to get a fun one. Get yourself a CS Steel tiger (5 inch blade) and you will have a toy that will keep you amused for hours. I almost had to use mine today (I did get it out) when two stray dogs came at me and Penny as I was taking her potty while we were at Mingo. I just started yelling and stomping toward them and they ran off, thank goodness. Even with that blade I wouldn't want to have to match up with a lab sized dog, let alone two.

See rule one! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I've seen some of those videos...and decided I'm no longer young. Reminds me of studying martial arts- when I was in my 20's I could do all these crazy jumping/spinning kicks..now it's more like, elbow bang! knee to the groin! Palm strike to nose! Easier, more direct...less flashy!

I already had a ZT0350, but I like this blade finish better. Great little folding survival knife, IMO. The 350 is a nice knife. If I didn't like my para 2 and Ritter grip more, I'd still have it. On the ZT topic, I'm surprised the 0550 is reminding me how much I like my para2! This jimping on the pinky of the ZT is driving me wacko! Such a nice, touch and good looking knife...wish the grip wasn't bugging me...

I tried a para2 for a couple of days and found the ergonomics horrible That knife gets such great reviews that I am thinking of trying it again
