This knife has the traditional slip joint DNA, packaged with modern materials. Other than the sticker shock, I really can’t find anything to critique. A light weight edc that masquerades as a gentleman folder, comfortable ergonomics, sharp out of the box edge with a strong lightweight carbon handle. And, you won’t make your coworkers gasp or accuse you of being a serial killer when you pull it out to use at work. This is like the step brother to the Benchmade Tengu, a handsome, non threatening edc that you can take along to a meeting or on a date night. This is a great and welcome addition to the ZT lineup, which usually consists of overbuilt tank like knives. Well done ZT!
