Wanna double you're money really quick?
I actually got to fondle Rhino's 0301 today and it was every think I hoped it would be. I must have one while they are still available.
I commend your for not mugging me for mine!

Confession: I was at Rural King today and the combination of their 12% rebate on everything plus a Kershaw Cryo hanging on the wall plus this topic made me weak and I did it.
I am ashamed for not getting it from Brad!
It's an interesting little knife and a decent copy of the ZT for the small investment. I'm suffering though because all of my sharpening gear is at home and the Cryo and I are not. ARGH!

That's how I roll my large purple friend!
Those look pretty sweet, and the price is nice too.
I actually took delivery of a new Kershaw Leek today. Needed something a bit more conservative than the 0301 to clip in the pocket of my dress pants for work.
I love this little thing! It's super slicy.
At this juncture, I wish to document that you did, in fact, address me as "friend." The armor weakens!
They had those too and now I kind of wish I'd gone in that direction. I just got thinking it would be neat to compare a miniature cousin to my ZT0560.
That's what I've been carrying at work for a LONG time now (the Leek). Delicate little point on it and it's really good for slicing. Great for office type stuff. Would be terrible at doing anything abusive at all.
Although, I'm starting to be of the opinion that I hate the Wharncliffe blade type. It looks really nice, but I really prefer something with a belly to it. Ever try scraping something off of a flat surface with a Wharncliffe? You just scratch and dig in with the tip since there's no belly. It's impossible.
(Side note, I had one of the framelock versions, and it was slicker than snot. The liner locking versions with aluminum scales provide approximately 237% more grip...+/- .02%. I'd assume the G10 versions or ones with some custom scales would be even grippier.)

Spouse bought me a Kershaw of Emerson design Christmas that resembles your ZT, Evan. Frame lock, G10 scale, wave opening feature. I'm becoming quite fond of it. Solid and meaty. Much heftier than the Spyderco Native I had been carrying.
Yeah I like the Kershaw/Emerson collaboration and wouldn't mind picking one up someday.
Someone above mentioned the all steel Cryo being slick and I'll concur. That is the one thing I didn't like about the CryoII I bought to compare to the ZT0566.
