4" closed. Love that burl.

The knife arrived today and looks nicer in hand. The burl is lighter and has a three dimensional quality.

I love the blade profile and the coined liners and they reflect off the blade.

It has perfect balance in hand and is fairly light at 56g, a bit under 2oz.

Oh, I was born in November, 1939, and Todd was very accommodating with the knife number.

That is pretty awesome Tom! Congrats!

I keep all this crap in my pockets, among other things.

Still rocking the mammoth ivory Davison.

Glad someone resurrected this thread.

May I ask why you carry three knives? That zt should do anything that little fixed can do. Probably more.

The SAK Cadet has a nail file/cleaner, small blade that I use for opening letters and boxes, a can opener and screwdriver for random tasks.
I mainly carry the ZT for EDC tasks. Cutting up boxes, zip ties, whatever.
The little fixed blade will do a thousand more tasks than my ZT will. Fixed blades will always be stronger than a folder. I can beat on the little fixed blade. Sometimes I carry the fixed blade as a necker, if I'm wearing gym shorts.

I don't do any prying with my knives, that's a no-no for any knife, but they get used. I think everyone should carry two knives, at least; One small folder, one medium fixed. I just happen to have my sizes backwards lol.

The nail file also works good at untying knots.

Is the black thing a pen?

Yes. That's a fisher bullet space pen.

It most certainly does!

Yes, SVTFreak nailed it, but I used a medium blue refill. IMO, all signatures should be signed in blue ink.

My PM2 came in last night, so that will be riding in my pocket for a while. The finger choil is a nice addition, although it's not needed.

Got this GEC yesterday, figured to bump this thread.

That's nice. I do wish those where stainless though.

I really prefer carbon steel, but this one is in 440C stainless.

The Tidioute and Northfield lines are 1095 Carbon Steel and the GEC line is 440C Stainless.

Oh sweet. Thanks for the tidbit. Time to go shopping...

GEC makes some really nice knives.

I'm carrying their #65 Ben Hogan slipjoint in antique bone today.

Isn't Northfield Knives Ship Free's house brand? I have a couple I really like. The Hawthorne is really nice.

DAVE_M · Dec 1, 2014

Been carrying my PM2 more often than my ZT0561. I'm thinking of picking up another ZT0560 and swapping scales.

This one is currently on order and should be in my possession sometime in the next few weeks.

I could have picked up one with green or orange liners, but I wanted red. So now I wait lol
He sold out of the few listed within a few hours.

It looks like an awesome little EDC knife!
