This and the ZT462 CF are my favorite production knives. I just lost the CF version of this one and ordered the Ti version. Both are great blades.

Thanks for the comparison! Also, the reason you can't reliably deploy via the thumb stud is because it's not a thumb stud, it's a brake stop for the blade when flipped open :)

Also when using the thumb stud with your left hand (thumb), you're inadvertently putting pressure on the lock bar against the blade causing added resistance. It'd probably be easier using your right hand (thumb).

No its literally not a thumb stud. Its a blade stop. They made them rounded to discourage use as a thumb stud They have said this@markn4526

My experience. I had both the ZT0562CF & ZT0562. I was able thumb flick my G-10 model with ease but the CF had a detent that was too strong to thumb flick... the G-10 model was from the discontinued sale and the CF was the 204P version. Now they are made in 20CV. The G-10 styling was not for me, I prefer something more eye catching 😃
@TheKnifeBeater5 жыл бұрын
Yeah, I'm sure that detent varies. I think at the time, the only reason I purchased the G10 version was because of price. Now I really like the titanium model more. Thanks for watching Eric.

Nice video KB, I have the G10 version that I bought for under $200 and I really like it. I like the Ti version as well but the only way I will ever upgrade to the full Ti version is if/when I finally pull the trigger on a Stars and Stripes Customized by USA Made Blade, I really like the ZT0562TI Blue Stars & Stripes "We The People" version... MAGA!

I hear ya, it's tough to justify buying almost the same model again. In regards to that modified version, I know exactly the knife you are talking about Sailor, it is beautiful. Thanks for watching.

Got my 0562 from a close out sale for $150. For me there’s no need to get the Ti version. Probably use the money for a Ferrum Forge or several budget knives. BTW, the liner under the 0562 g10 is steel. I thought it was Ti too till I put a magnet to it. 👍🏽🔪

Wow JcruzR that's a fantastic price! Nice work. Thanks for the heads up about the liner.

The Knife Beater KnifeCenter had the best price when that model was discontinued. Had to snatch it!

Just bought the cf version and can’t open with thumb studs. Like the looks but wish it had more grip. Same with the ti version. Great review! New subscriber.

I'm not sure if anyone mentioned it, but the G10 is over steel with titanium one the lock side.

Nice comparison. I'm not a fan of the "CF" version at all. I like the early "G10" version a lot (with Elmax), but would probably prefer the "Ti".

I have the 0562CF and I love it but every now and then it will get a LITTLE bit of play between the blade and detent when its closed. Barely perceptible but I feel it. Anyone else have this issue?
