Details
The Zero Tolerance 0609 is a scaled down and simplified version of the Zero Tolerance Factory Custom 0606CF also designed by RJ and Matt Martin. The clean and streamlined design retains the visual appeal with contoured and textured 3D Machined titanium with a handsome bronze anodized finish.
Brand new directly from Zero Tolerance.
The Blade: The two-tone blade of the 0609 deploys fast and smooth thanks the KVT bearing pivot and index flipper. Inside of the pivot is where all the action is. The oversize See-Through Pivot (STP) designed by RJ Martin is hollow allowing a clear "wow" view. The CPM 20CV blade offers optimal performance in both edge retention and corrosion resistance. The clip point blade sports a subtle recurve for a sharp look and a high height flat grind for great slicing performance. The blade looks great with machine satin on the grinds and stonewash on the flats. Jimping that runs down the spine into the handle adds additional traction.
The Handle: The titanium frame lock is equipped with a hardened steel lock face insert for smooth, solid operation. Both titanium scales are anodized bronze over the eye-catching 3D milling that adds tons of visual appeal to the sleek lines of the 0609. The front of the handle has a spot of jimping and some moderate finger grooves for security and comfort. The 0609 is an open back construction with barrel spacers and carries via a reversible (tip-up) stainless steel pocket clip.
CPM 20CV: This super stainless steel is the Crucible analog of Bohler M390 and offers the same great wear resistance and corrosion resistance while being relatively easy to sharpen and taking a very fine edge. 20CV works well with both coarse and polished edge finishes but 15°per side is needed to support the hard carbides that give 20CV its high-end cutting performance.
