2024's Favorite CCW? | PSA Micro Dagger

Posted: 6/25/2019 8:04:05 PM EDT

Are these decent. Local Cabelas has one and I can use my points for it . My carry knife now is a Gerber with the replaceable razor blades or a cheap Tanto my brother got me.

. Been looking at getting an auto and I see ZT recommended alot. They also have a 0450CF ?

The 0566CF has been my EDC for over a year now. It’s my perfect knife as far as I’m concerned. I haven’t been able to find another knife that has all of the same features and style.

My only ZT knife and I love it. Got the stonewashed version.

It's a hoss of a blade and has served me well.

I've had one for about 3 years. It's a great knife, but I find myself eyeing a lighter weight carbon fiber handled ZT.

So would you get the 450CF instead?

I have been carrying one everyday for at least 5 years now. To me it's the perfect size and combo of features for everyday carry.

Yeah, if you don't mind the fact that it's not assisted opening. I handled the 804CF and love it. The ball bearing opening is just as fast as my 566 assisted opening. They're silly light, and perfect for EDC.

Went with the 0450CF . It just seemed to fit in my pocket better than the 566.

Hope you like it. I don't think there is a bad decision to be made among most of the ZT line.

I have both the 450 and 566 - they are nice knives. If the 566 flipped unassisted as good as the 450 it would be a winner. I actually like the 562 better than both. I called ZT and they sent me a deep carry clip for the 450, it works much better.

@ScottyPotty did you just ask them for a deep carry clip for the 450? I thought you had to order one for like a 850 or something ( watched a few YouTube videos and thought one mentioned this ?)

First day carrying this knife and so far I'm loving it . Hope higher ends knives dont reproduce like 1911's AR's and custom rifles

. Showed a couple guys at work and they were pretty much in love with it also .

Yeah, I just asked them. The girl was friendly and said they would be happy to send one out.
