TheZero Tolerance ZT 0350OLTS is a smaller version of the iconic ZT 0300 knife, featuring a CPM MagnaCut steel blade, SpeedSafe blade unfolding assist mechanism and liners made of durable G-10 laminate in green.
TheZT 0350OLTS is a sturdy, very handy EDC knife, based on Zero Tolerance's flagship model, the ZT 0300, which has won the hearts of knife enthusiasts with its military styling and rugged construction.
Features of the Zero Tolerance ZT 0350OLTS folding knife:
- Drop Point profile blade made of CPM MagnaCut stainless steel;
- Equipped with Liner Lock;
- Opening the blade with Flipper or double-sided peg;
- Blade finish with BlackWash oxidation technique;
- G10 laminate knife liners;
- carry clip.
The blade in the ZT 0350OLTS knife was created from high-quality American tool steel.
Theknife has an 82mm long blade, made of super CPM MagnaCut steel produced with powder technology. The main difference between CPM MagnaCut steel and other stainless steels is the amount of chromium. The elimination of chromium carbides from the steel's composition has resulted in a fine microstructure, making CPM MagnaCut much easier to sharpen compared to steels with similar wear resistance.
CPM MagnaCut combines the strength of CPM-4V, the corrosion resistance of CPM-20CV, the retention of CPM-CruWear/ CPM-4V and impressive hardness, so that it is now considered one of the best steels in the world used in factory-made knives.
The blade is finished with the BlackWash oxidation technique, which is combined with the classic "Tiger Stripe" pattern .
Functional Drop Point Blade
The Drop Point's utilitarian profile, concave grind and perfectly honed cutting edge with a gentle curve ensure very efficient and smooth cutting. The blade is finished with a strong dagger, with high mechanical resistance.
The thickness of the blade at its widest point is 3 mm, this guarantees adequate strength and functionality in everyday work. On the raised back of the blade were made transverse cutters (ramp), which allow stable support of the thumb or index finger.
The advantages of this solution will be appreciated by any user of the knife during planing or precision cutting.
Convenient unfolding of the blade in the ZT 0350OLTS folder
The blade can be unfolded with one hand in two ways: using the milled Flipper or using the two-sided peg, thus allowing us to choose the method according to our preferences.
Both solutions are convenient for both right- and left-handed users, and also allow comfortable operation of the knife with gloves. The opening process is facilitated by the SpeedSafe assist mechanism.
When the flipper flipper is pressed, the assist mechanism activates an internal spring that dynamically unfolds the blade, making the knife ready for use in a fraction of a second.
Reliable locking mechanism
Once the blade is unfolded, it is securely locked with the Liner Lock mechanism. The steel locking bar provides a high level of security, and its operation is very intuitive and convenient.
Non-slip grip
The handle of the knife is formed by G-10 laminate facings, attached to steel liners, responsible for the rigidity and strength of the structure.
The glass-epoxy laminate used is characterized by light weight, high mechanical strength, resistance to water, temperature change, as well as many acids and solvents.
The profiled shape of the handle and its carefully selected size, make the knife very secure and comfortable in the hand, and it has no tendency to slip.
Carrying the knife in a pocket or in the sheath is possible thanks to the high-set clip, which can be fixed in as many as 4 positions, i.e. on the right or left side of the sheath and in the tip-down or tip-up position.
