I own a bunch of Kershaws, not trying to brag- ok that's not a brag... but only one Zero
Tolerance the 0350.
But fellow knife channel TovarishWorks was like hey check out the 0770 in carbon fiber
and M390- which is light AF.
But I think tovarish recorded an intro so lets look at it . Tovarish Speaking) Whats
up everybody and welcome to another edition of collection commentary in todays What?
Video.
Its an intro for advanced knife bro.
who?
That guys a fucking nerd.
(Advanced Knife Bro speaking again) Ok well I dont know how nice that was.
So let's check out the dimensions like the overall length and weight... the blade length
and cutting edge, the handle size the grip area, the spine thickness and handle thickness.
The tallness closed and flipper protrusion.
The 0770 is a nice light pocket-able every day carry with a good usable 3 1/4 inch ish
drop point blade made from M390 in a stonewash finish.
Now the 0770CF is still available this limited run with M390 is only available on the secondary
market- like out of the back of vans or a very reputable seller on alibaba who swears
it's legit.
There's some thick jimping on the blade spine up top... not sharp but kind of aggressive.
The blade is deployed by a flipper stud in the form of a speed safe patented opening
that's not much different from a practical standpoint than a switchblade.
But since it's deployed by part of the blade and not a separate button, it gets around
a dumb law much easier.
So you get smooth an consistent deployments every time.
And like all speedsafes on kershaws and zero tolerances, it requires a little bit of force
to activate, and when you close it you feel resistance against the torsion bars.
So assisted openings are a little more fatiguing
to fidget with than a smooth ball bearing system- and a bit more disruptive to office
synergy because of the loud click.
Whatever the hell synergy means.
The blade is locked by a cool liner lock that I really like the feel of guys, I dunno I
just feel good about how it feels.
You know how much I like liner locks.
They're just really cool and help sell me on this knife.
You're really just gonna wanna buy this.
The handle is made of lightweight carbon fiber with a partial nested liner... keeps the weight
way down and keeps the handle relatively thin.
The handle overall is smooth, not super slick but not a wet conditions knife unless you
duct tape it to your hand.
My hand just fits the handle without too much crowding, but dudes with big hands might want
more room.
The pocket clip is a deep carry right or left side in a tip up configuration only.
Let's do one of two quick comparisons.
The 0350.
Which is a heavier knife but with tiger stripes, so you can swing it faster.
I don't carry this one a whole lot, I mean there's nothing wrong with it really.
It's snappy and durable.
The Lion Steel SR11... heavier a little bigger, but it has the rotoblock that doesn't really
work like it should- so that's cool I guess.
and the Zero Tolerance 0055, which improves on an assisted opening by adding an extra
step and making it twice as hard to deploy.
It's pretty dope looking.
That's cool I guess.
�Ok we're done here.
Now I don't spend a ton of time watching reviews, because I spend a lot of time making medicore
ones, But somehow I missed this one.
Tovarishworks is like ehh on this, but since I don't have great taste I kind of like it.
It's light snappy and pocket able.
I don't go outside much or sweat or do a whole lot of work, or stab people for a living,
so the light carbon fiber is nice and slides in and out of the pocket when you're bored.
It hits all the knife snob high points of people who pretend to use their knives like
a long wearing steel, hypothetically if I ever used it... a nice hand feel, tip up reversible
you know all the stuff I said above but in a slightly different order.
And as my second zero tolerance I've ever held it gets a solid recommendation from me.
Because I obviously know my shit about ZTs.
If you like this review subscribe to TovarishWorks fancy custom knife channel, give his videos
a thumbs up, leave him a comment- here are a few of his videos, and stay tuned for some
even fancier Chris reeve and ZT blade reviews from this channel, that I'll offer some pretty
obtuse commentary about.
Thanks for watching.
