I'm disappointed that the only ZT model is a tanto. Hopefully they have some non-tanto v grind knives lined up as future offerings.

Here'a a little fella... I like it! Takes a great edge and will be nice to carry in the summer with shorts.

I was excited to see that ZT did one also until I saw the price, you can get a real Emerson for that...
The Kershaws look to be great deals.

If you ask me a ZT made Emerson is better than the real thing. That's why I was so excited, before I realized they were only doing a tanto.

LOL well of course I have never handled an Emerson so that may just be.

Zero Tolerance 0620CF Tanto Knife Carbon Fiber (3.6" Satin) ZT Emerson (from Todd's original post). It would be relatively easy to sharpen out the Tanto and make it into a more conventional blade shape. I have done this to a couple blades.
AND don't forget the Reissued Tali-Whacker LOOKED like a Tanto but isn't. Just the way it photographed.

I got an awesome knife in the mail today. I had been looking for a Spyderco PPT for a while, and thanks to a great Dog I now have one. Rock solid on lockup, razor sharp and the knife just feels about perfect in hand. Pardon the cell phone photo. I have no other way to do upload photos at the current time.
