    The ZT 0350 was my very first knife, absolutely loved it when I got it and still do. Definitely wish they'd bring back some of the older models with updated steels and refined actions. Great GREAT knife!

      I bought two 0350 around three years ago had to get rid of them needed some quick cash. Just got a new one a week ago. Didn't really consider anything else I really like this knife.

    The last couple years I've really jumped feet first into the knife life. When I set my heart on a ZT, the only one for me was an 0350TS. Because Gibbs.

      He used a 0303TS (and occasionally a 0301TS), which is a slightly larger (and better/nicer) version of the 0350TS with a 3 3/4" blade and titanium frame lock.....ZT stopped making it years ago, but I have one and it's a tank.

    I can’t believe there are only 39 comments on this video nearly a year old. That was a great comparison of 2 truly beautiful knives. Fine job David. I bought a 357 about 2 months ago and have been carrying it daily since then. I’m loving it. It was my first ZT knife. I’ve got the 350TS on my wish list though. I’ve enjoyed the 357 so much, I don’t believe the 350 could beat it. But it just looks so cool, that I have to get it a try.

    I just got the Kershaw Link in cpm20cv. Very similar to the 0357 but almost half the price. Although I prefer G10 to the aluminum handles of the Link, they put some texture on the aluminum that adds some grip, and you can't beat that price!
    I used to have a pretty good rotation of EDC knives. Right now the 20cv Link is winning every day

    • @kylewadlow3361
      @kylewadlow3361 4 роки тому

      I had the link in S35VN from House of Blades and absolutely loved it but it got stolen was so pissed. When I went to replace it with the 20cv version i heard about the 0357 and finally decided to go with it after weeks of debate and boy I haven’t been disappointed. The 0357 feels better in the hand, G10 on it is amazing, blade slices like a dream, and just overall feels better quality than the Link, but I will be getting another link in 20CV very soon.

      @@kylewadlow3361 thanks for the heads up. I'd imagine the fit and finish is better, but I can't justify the price difference. I really do like G10 scales. I keep hoping someone will makes replacement scales. Micarta would be awesome too.

    The 350 had always been one of the best bang for the buck deals in all the knife world, especially when you could routinely find them around $135-140. The new 0357 seems to be a great new alternative while keeping the same ZT hard use soul. Great video.

    I wouldn’t buy any of these knives because of the assist. Or so I thought. I bought the 357 from Dicks last night and it replaced m Benchmade Osborne 940 with m4 steel as my new work edc!!! This knife is awesome and that 20cv came to a mirror polish after I put it on the kme sharpener!!! The steel was a lot easier to work with then I thought it was gonna be

    The 350 is ugly, I don’t like the flat g10 scales in terms of usability and aesthetics. It reminds me though of the 0301 which I have and love, the contouring of the handle makes it 10x better than the 350. Just got my 0357 last week and I’ve been carrying it every day, I am loving it!
