Zero Tolerance Hinderer 0393GLCF Flipper Framelock Knife, CPM 20CV, Titanium/CF Glow-in-the-Dark
[ZT0393GLCF]

This knife is really special. It looks good! It has a wow factor when others look at it. The titanium handle with its C.F. glow in the dark scales are a great combo that feels sleek in the hand. The liner lock is more than sufficient for hard use cutting, hard use camping life and beating on if you are like me and need your knife to be highly versatile even if it is a nice looking knife. I mostly use this knife at bonfires or camping. It does the job. Yes, it’s too thick to be a slicer but when you like something you don’t care and you make it work. Cutting straps, rope, rags, wood, plastic is easy. The tip may not puncture plastic bottles well as you can imagine, but it definitely can if you push harder. In the pocket, this is a mid size knife feel! It’s not too heavy surprisingly. Pocket life isn’t bad with jeans, but clipping to sweat pants feels risky. Recommend zipper pockets. The 20cv blade is amazing. I haven’t had to sharpen it once in 4 months. I just strop it for 3-5 mins and it cuts like a dream again. I can imagine that actually sharpening 20cv steel would be super challenging though.

The smooth action, great looks, awesome utilitarian performance, cutting abilities for its thickness, perfect hand ergonomics and nice blade material makes this knife a 5 star for me.
