    I eyeballed it for probably 2 years. Got $100 gift card as an appreciation gift from my boss, so I figured the fates wanted me to finally get it.

    I haven't even used it yet, and I can tell you he's right. Although I expect I'll be getting a new sheath for it.

    That Grizzly Creek is an awesome knife, too, especially if you hunt.

    I messaged a guy about having a custom knife made like one he posted on here but never heard back. So i went the cheaper route and ordered something else!

    My ESEE 3 should be arriving tomorrow! I'm super excited and since i didn't spend a small fortune I'll actually get more use out of this knife, custom still would've been cool though.

    Spyderco police , bought 25 yrs ago in Colorado at spyderco factory seconds sale. You can see where they drilled the mounting holes in the wrong place under the top of the clip in the second photo. This one has been with me for all my adult life. Can't say that about many (any, actually) of my possesions. This blade has been by my side all the way. ...time to send it in to have it sharpened. Think i paid <20$, cant imagine it was more than that as i was working a summer job in the Rockies and couldn't have afforded more. I think one reason it lasted so long is that it lies outside the legal blade length for EDC concealed carry. It stayed in my truck rather than on me, where dozens of knives lived, and now are scattered around forests as future archeological discoveries ...

    Spyderco Endura just spent 4 days on the salt flats chasing sharks. The ZT 0562 is a new addition today.

    Agree. I actually have a little buyers remorse from purchasing it. It's nice. But too heavy and not really worth the $30. But, at least I had a gift card so it was kind of "free" for me.

    Kershaw's a great brand. Maybe not the cachet of a Zero Tolerence but definitely cut from the same cloth.

    Yes, but they have models that are Made in the USA, $70+ range, that are very good quality, sharp blades etc., and then there are the made in China models that are in the $30 range; perfectly fine for most usages, but not the same quality as the others. Definitely a difference in the steel when you try to sharpen it.

    That's pretty much what I'm saying. Just make sure the steel is decent. Heck, even Snap On uses Kershaw to make stuff for them.

    I don't really like my Kershaw Cryo as a knife. But it sure is fun to flip open and shut. I've probably used the flipper 1000 times already. If it weighed less than 3oz I'd probably carry it.
