Iāve never had any issue with the Hinderer style ZTās catching in my pocket. . I carry the 0566 & 0560 quite often.
actually it has come one of my favorite little knives.
I looked at the ZT knives like the one just above and something bothers me about the style. On the frame lock style with the cut out so the lock can actually be used, do yāall find the cut out on the outside hangs on the pocket?
I got a Strider clone and itās made that way, has SS frame instead of Ti. I had to file down the outermost edge at the lower side of that cut out so it wouldnāt hang on my pocket trying to pull it out. The clip presses the sewn seam of jeans into that groove and the dang knife gets stubborn!
The Sage 2 has that relief cut on the inside, not a problem at all. As does my all Ti Mission MPF.
Just wondered if anyone else had issues with that new way of doing the frame lock or if it was just meā¦.
I have no issues with my frame lock 566, it may have to do with the fact that it is a clone and not all clones have good QC? I could be wrong and the strider may hang up in pockets. You might also shop around for a longer clip.
Hey Dale,
Have ya played with one of these just yet?

I am rather intrigued with it. might end up on my buy list before getting a strider knife.
edited to ad a better link to the knife.
Flipper already machined for tritium vials I see.
Another very hard to resist knife.
The MG DAMM is a nice looking knife. In size and configuration it seems to be on par with the ZT 0560, although I donāt know if N690 is comparable with Elmax. Iāve read itās close to VG-10, and thatās a good steel so assuming they have a good heat treatment that would be excellent value for money at the $60-$90 youād pay for it.

Iām looking for a cheap source for tritium vials. Itās not easy to find them in such a small size.

Based on two months of use the N690 blade seems very similar to my other VG-10 blades (Spyderco Endura) regarding edge retention and sharpening.

any of them can be adjusted to the hole?
Thereās a few different sizes and shapes on AliExpress
I seem to remember someone on here (or the other place) had some for sale at reasonable prices.
Strangely enough some counties will not allow the import of tritium, they treat it like itās wildly radioactive, it is a bit but not wildly.

You can also try the 1.5mm metric hex bit but thatās a smaller size.
