I first saw Zero Tolerance in 2007 at Grey Group Training in Fayetteville, North Carolina. I was immediately attracted to the look of their knives. But their price point turned me off.

Zero Tolerance 0562 titanium handled knife | A titan among men

Zero Tolerance 0460TI: An ergonomic folder
I recently acquired this Zero Tolerance 0460TI and was immediately drawn to its pronounced ergonomic design. Similar to the original 0460 by ZT the folder fits neatly into the hollow of your hand, giving you a comfortable and secure grip on the tool. Unlike the original 0460, this knife is all titanium; built for toughness […]
Zero Tolerance 0022 | A tiny knife that punches above it’s weight class
When I look through my collection of folding knives, I notice a lack of variety in the size department. With many of them falling into the more common 8″ to 8.5″ overall length. In fact, the smallest knife I own is the ZT0450CF at 7.4″ and 2.4oz. Hardly a mini. That’s why I was intrigued […]

It is no secret that I am a fan of ZT (Zero Tolerance) knives. ZT is a product line from KAI, USA. They specialize in hard use, semi-custom, factory production knives at a reasonable price. I started my foray into ZT about five years ago when I purchased my beloved ZT 0301 ST. I carried […]

When the best gets better: Zero Tolerance 0609 folding knife
Zero Tolerance’s new 0609 folding knife can trace its origins to the original Factory Custom 0606CF, although this new release offers a smaller and more concealable profile.
