Good choice for a birthday present 🎂 🎁 & what a great woman to buy it for you. I'm a big ZT fan & this knife checked all of my boxes. I like big, full belly knives with spot on detent, & drop shut action.
After having mine for a year now, I actually really like the hole at the pivot. You can wash and squirt some oil in in the field with no issues. If a person is worried about gunk in the bearings they should buy a fixed blade and sit back down at their office desk.
Double your socks for Whitney Whitney is a great hike sounds like your doing portal . Watch the weather the mountain produces its own climate I climbed it in 1999 I climbed it in October lol it was ruff then Make sure you acclimate at base camp for a day to be safe ! You can do portal in one day if you train right . Keep your gear light and bring decent snivel gear
You should change your YT channel's name to 'Greared Up Beard' instead. Thanks for the recommendation on the custom pocket clip. I will definitely order one from the guy for my 0308.
I love mine, after it broke in properly it is as smooth as any other ZT or titanium frame lock I own for that matter, and I own over 100 titanium frame locks. (I know I have a problem).
I have many benchmades, houges etc and the frame lock on this knife will definitely hold up to any of the crossbar style locks. Don't get me wrong I love a good axis lock but this thing is a beast. I beat a chunk out of a 2x4 doing spine wacks, to try to get it to fail. No luck, solid as a rock.
@@kevin6030 dude in the video released another vid about this knife. You are mistaken. The frame lock did get bent over while he was working with this knife ... It's not a AD-10 with a Tri-Ad lock after all... so makes sense
Reading your review helped me decide on buying this over the ZT 393, so thank you!
I got it too! Its awesome like the wide blade
That knife in full titanium would actually be compelling to me.
That would weight around 10oz in full ti. How do you say..."brick house"😂
i knowwww. if that front scale was ti with same milling i would def pay 300.
@@tristandauod id love it
Tristan Dauod The proper way to say brick house in knife bro is: Medford. I’d love all 10oz of it lol.
@@KnifeCursed 😂😂 I was abouta say, you could just get a Medford
Lol, I just got the zt0308blkts for my birthday from my wife. It's not like I don't like mines, but I kinda like this version.

It’s one of their best knives IMO 🤘🏻
This is my kind of knife. Lol I was able to handle one at my local knife shop and am kicking myself for not buying one when ZT had that huge sale.
I’ll send mine for you to test drive once I’ve finished my review 🤘🏻

Love your videos, you seem like a straight-up guy who doesn't b*******

how can Iorder that clip from Adam?
I love those big wide blade knives they're my favorite I was going to buy the 0308 but I found an xm24 so the zt will have to wait.

Needs a finger choil... Spyderco FTW
To big as a folder for me but a very nice knife thanks Jake
How’s the flexibility on the clip? Does it have a good spring, in and out of pocket?
Yeah it functions really well, not too firm but has great retention 👍🏻
Mine has perfect retention. Get one if you like heavy duty titanium frame locks. Pure ZT
First! Looks cool. Would make a great bday gift for anyone
Thanks man!
put an axis lock on it and Im freaking selling my car for parts to get one
