ZT 0462 Final Diagnosis - Spectacular but Scary Sinkevich!

[@DaveWillis1]

Been EDCing this for a few months, still loving it.

[@chadkochenower6142]

Love this knife. My "now wife" bought if for me this last Christmas. Totally wasn't expecting it. But, she'd seen me eyeballing it at Cabella's. It fits my hand very well. It's wicked, wicked sharp. The action is also smooth as butter, such that after unwrapping it, handling it, and releasing the blade the first time, it fell down on my thumb and gave me a nice little cut. I'm a knife dork, so, instead of being like "oh! I'm cut, I was like, hells yes! Lol!" I don't see why this can't be a great EDC knife. Yeah, it's a little on the large side, but it is extremely light. Compared to my ZT 0562, I often forget it's even in my pocket. I'm honestly afraid some day I may accidentally put it in the washing machine. Once it's in the pocket you forget it's there.

[@Zissou42]

This is a lot of fun to carry and use, but I will go back to the 0562 in ELMAX for everyday use.

[@ajbriles3647]

This guy was my first ZT/Higher end folder and my God it's my favorite knife I've ever owned. The action was insane and extremely satisfying. I sadly had to return it but I'm buying it again. Absolute gem.

[@sams.710]

Phenominal knife, I enjoy the design's simplicity for maintenance. Very useful, yet stunning to look at. A good carry in my opinion to its counterpart, the 0460.

[@raulbanegas1982]

My first ZT, I like it very much, outstanding!

[@therealhawkeyeii7888]

Clearly, of Elvin make. I bet it glows when in the proximity to goblins

[@govic55]

Facts!

[@slywolfe]

Hahaha thanks for the laugh

[@bernardbarnett8440]

I own this knife and I love it, plus it feels good in the ✋.

[@donalddegaetano9502]

This knife is awesome nowhere near too aggressive I havent been excited for a knife in a long time beautiful ,ZT did it right

[@CKshouta]

This is actually one of my smaller EDCs. It's great.

[@jamied.9846]

This is definitely on my short list... Love the Shiro look for the price!!!

[@shotgunbowen]

I picked this up a couple of months ago. I agree on the back spacer, doesn't really fit the design, but wanted a 4" knife in my collection and the red cf was beautiful.

[@davidgray6622]

Great review and well thought out. Mine arrives tomorrow and I can't wait. For me, just a beautiful show piece. I first saw this online in a photo and it didn't even catch my eye. In fact the persian blade may have been a slight turn off... Then I saw it in person and held it in my hand.... like I said, mine arrives tomorrow and I can't wait!

[@1donnatien]

I have this knife and LOVE IT! The 0460 is was way too small for my hands.

[@HammerK99]

I love it. Looking for a video showcasing it with the Benchmade bedlam and cold steel Talwar/Scimitar/Talwar San Mai III.

[@slidetek]

You're right. I didn't get a notification this was up - only saw your comparison with the Sigma. I thought the "factory custom" 0450 was a typo or a joke. Who on earth is the clown picking colors for ZT anyway? What's the fascination with dog poop brown? And a sexy giant brick pattern. Anyway, the 0450 and 0460 are just too tiny for me, this one seems to give you that swoopy design for a good price. I do sort of wish they'd split the difference and done this as a 3.5".

[@Snapper314]

Like Nick Shabazz said, these knives ARE Big and Murdery. And I'm totally okay with that! I'm currently EDC'ing a ZT 0452GL most days. When I want or need to be more discrete, I carry a ZT 0450CF.

[@boomanchu2565]

What you see as downsides to this knife is exactly why I’m buying it! Great review 👍🏼

[@Brotheroftheleaf]

Agreed, some people are just a bunch of bitches.

[@tallica4life81]

I’ve always liked this one with the red carbon weave scale.

[@MetalsForBrunch]

my favorite zt knives are zt0462 and zt0452 cfm390blu. I dont find them murdery at all just elegant sleek tactical knives.

[@jtscustomcutlery317]

Great work as always doc! 👌🏻

[@Beans_blades_VMOGroup]

Dude I was writing about how much I wanted this knife they have it at my local Army Store was pretty bummed when I saw it bc I'd bought the week before the Benchmade Crooked River and wish I'd have seen this and gotten instead but at the time wasn't too familiar with ZT, so was writing about how much I wanted this, UNTIL I saw your custom 0393 and my jaw hit the floor what an awesome job great colors I absolutely love it man bravo.

[@detroitvseverybody3813]

This is 100% a self defense knife, and that being the most important function of a knife as a tool, ill keep mine all day.

[@xonerex7501]

Self defense isn't the most important function of a knife, are you fucked in the head? How are we as knife enthusiasts supposed to dispel the widely held (and damaging) belief that pocket knives are just weapons when we have such godawful spokespeople such as yourself traipsing around giving that viewpoint credence?

[@fishermann7549]

I love this knife but it is not my EDC. This is a great display knife or for me, a great deer, to put it nicely, cleaning knife. I have very large hands and to use this knife as a worker it fits those hands wonderfully. It feels great, cuts great and stays sharp. "Pocket sword"... Love that line!

[@marcorodriguez6264]

Exelente review amigo

[@DoctorFrunkey]

Gracias amigo

[@kevinosborne8308]

I have it in my carhartts everyday, the clip works great for me.

[@Panzerfaust9161]

Bought it when it first came out for 245 bucks and sadly sold it months later. 07/13/24, bought another because I realized I made a mistake by selling my first one. As of this date the current selling price is around 320 bucks in my area.

[@lfpriego08]

Excellent video. You got yourself a new subscriber

[@Rivy_ID]

Good video Doc, some of the things you mention are nit picks I had with this one as well. I normally love a satin blade, but this one seemed a bit too bright and the hardware sort of sticks out rather than blending in with the handle. Been super curious to get one though so for $20 less I ordered the sprint 0462BLK, lose the 20CV, but S35 is fine with me- this won't be a hard user. I also ordered an Adam Purvis clip for it, so hopefully I love it! Haha. I had a 0452 in the past, but it was such a long knife I feel like this might be a touch better due to the lighter weight and slightly shorter overall length.

[@jbstuff]

I'm trying to get myself to pick up aZT knife and I can't do it. I have to customize everything I own and the scales on this bother me as far cf on one side and ti on the other. Pretty lame to me that if I get some anodizing or something done in the ti that is on the wrong side for me.

[@DrFrankLondon]

Frank, it works like a charm in trauma medicine, it is a great carry to accident sites to scare the heck out of those who try insurance fraud.. 😂😂😂😂 Seriously, I have the 0450, 0452 and the 0460, but I never pulled the trigger on the 0462 as it looks scary to a lot of people and when I handled it, it did impress me, but went for the original instead of the one made under license, i.e. a Dimitri custom.

[@DougFLA123]

Stabby, murdery, pocket sword 😂

[@thatoneguy2465]

ZT's are meant to be murdery

[@Kaktus-mr2cq]

Hi. ZT 0462 or ZT 0850? Which is better in your opinion?

[@trevorliss9842]

I own this knife I've never seen anybody look at it like a pocket sword always ask me where did you get it and how much was it

[@whyFINAL]

damn .... what to choose, this or 452cf ? :-/

[@Orochi_001]

I would kill for a lower-priced version of this with g10 scales. I need me a long, svelte ZT

[@SilverStackers]

haha, saw your IG feed. ill watch your video. lol

[@freedomring6364]

I don’t have too much interest in knifes without a fixed pivot, I carry my knifes and even with locktite it seems to loosens .

[@somedude1590]

did you sell it? how much ya want for it?

[@Lateralus1007]

That’s a pretty Frunkey looking knife 🔪 👀

[@LM-mc2lm]

Just ordered it

[@oinnsheathen5684]

Great review man. Definitely buying this next. Spyderco and Benchmade have lost my interest. Maybe it’s my Scandinavian blood. 🤷🏼‍♂️

[@Thetinebroken]

We want what this bad boy gives sword and scared

[@AGC828]

"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder"....subjective. I used to like the look of this knife...first time I saw it...then over time seeing it over and over by chance....it began to me started resembling a steak knife :) My tastes changed...preferring more "beefy" looking knives with wide blades....had a different "philosophy of use".... Preferring knives like the 456, 307, 350, Griptilian...etc.... I knew I'd have limited use for this knife/blade shape....to each his own.

[@VicariousReality7]

Almost as satisfying as my 0804

[@RyanKingLogue]

I want it!

[@darkeseols3198]

This is a "first mate" knife if I've ever seen one. When you're talking fishing knifes, you're talking upswept blades. The deckhand will be in the Kershaw or Buck price range, the first mate will have a Benchmade or ZT, and the captain will have a custom blade.

[@Shanes_Sharp_Sheet]

Is it to "skinny"?... i like it alot, but skinny knives are probably one of my biggest peeves. Like the BM fact was just too skinny, not enough meat on it.

[@valkyriesurvives5109]

Shane miller It feels slim but for my hand it didn't feel too slim to be comfortable

[@matthewjohnson7770]

My next knife!

[@mannyz5307]

I can use a sword.

[@kellyglanzer5722]

please dont start saying murdery.....nick says it enough. lol

[@CASTRO45ACP]

That he does, I get that he's not thinking self defense when choosing a knife but it gets shoved down our throats a bit while watching his videos.

[@johndesper9425]

A knife is a good option to have in case you need to defend yourself, but something like pepper spray will probably be more appropriate and effective in most situations, and more conveniently transported. So you may not need to carry such a large knife as you think.

[@packinaglock]

@@johndesper9425 Just carry a pistol.

[@prasand]

John Desper having walked into the wind cloud of someone’s spray, I learned pepper spray is just as likely to disable the one spraying as it does their intended target.

[@AlexanderSLeBlanc]

@@prasand buy gel spray, not cloud.

[@DddNnnDddd]

But the 0452 is even larger.

[@LDmagnum]

a less than 4 inch blade is hardly a pocket sword

[@danielerickson3391]

Is my edc

[@dennismccrary7639]

The type of steel should be the first thing you say, not the last.

[@jesusiskingofkings3960]

Pocket Sword haha

[@oinnsheathen5684]

You said Sinkevich wrong.

[@CASTRO45ACP]

9:11 , hahaha

[@oinnsheathen5684]

the 0452 is bigger

[@johnkennedy9078]

Pocket sword..😅

[@stoltzfus75]

Scared... seriously. Wtf dude

[@Tankman333]

hey doc i think you and shabazz should do a little less shit comparing and a lot more knife comparing

[@DoctorFrunkey]

???

[@Jake6753O9]

Oooohhh, scary looking! 😒

[@Riversleroi]

a bit too big for what, Doris?

[@samdungan03]

Someone has a crush on nick shabazz........ #knockoffnick
