Even if they were the same price, I'd select the Foresight over my ZT 0300. It is extremely comfortable and stunningly rugged: flip the flipper on this thing and out comes a that slab of heavy steel; flip it with just the slightest wrist twitch and it slams out and you'd better be hanging on tight. It makes you think of those silly Duluth Trading cartoon commercials -- only this isn't a cartoon.The knife is beautifully made, and my example -- bought at discount from the Amazon returns outlet -- is perfectly centered and oh, so smooth in operation.It is a big knife -- physically almost as big as the ZT 0300/0301 and virtually identical in size to the excellent, comparable, but twice as expensive ZT 0200, the serious knife by which all others must be measured. The Foresight is a couple ounces lighter. The blade is obviously a Ken Onion design, but he didn't get carried away. There's more of a point than there is on the ZTs, which makes it more useful, I think. The materials are not especially exotic -- aluminum and AUS8 instead of G10 and 154CM, titanium and S30V -- but entirely satisfactory, and the ball bearing pivot is plenty exotic all by itself. (There has been concern about grit getting into the pivot, which would be more of a problem than it is in other knives because while disassembly of the Foresight is easy, reassembly is nontrivial.)In part because of the pivot system, the aluminum frame has steel inserts on both sides -- aluminum would wear too quickly under the ball bearings -- and on the lock side the steel extends to be a kind of liner lock. The stop pin is captive, which is to say it is in a slot cut in the blade, rather than being external of the blade; this is certainly a weaker system than an external pin would be, but as with the worry about pivot contamination this has thusfar apparently been theoretical. It is certainly only theoretical here. The knife works smoothly and locks up so solidly that it feels like a good fixed blade. It is less easy to close than a framelock, and the detent ball is robust enough that it will catch the edge of the flipper and make it feel almost stuck -- take a little care in closing this knife until you've figured it out. Mastering one-handed closing takes longer than it does on most other flipper knives.The Foresight is not an assisted knife. I love assisted knives, but I'm also a student of the fabled Murphy and therefore know that it is at that moment when your very life depends on a knife opening -- that's when the assist mechanism will fail. This knife doesn't need any more assistance than the flick of the wrist, and usually not even that. The sheer mass of that hunk of steel puts inertia to work happily.Two things require some getting used to. One is the jumping on the flipper, which is SHARP. I'm not sure the sometimes painful jimping is necessary; I'd prefer 1/16-inch more flipper instead. And the lock release, on the example I got, is just the tiniest bit sticky, which is not a big issue most of the time, but can be a problem when one's hands are wet or cold.It really is an extraordinarily good knife for those who aren't looking for a genttlemen's vest-pocket blade. If they made exactly the same shape and blade thickness, and the same aluminum handle, in a fixed blade, I'd get one. And isn't that the real measure of a large folder?
