High-Performance Steel

Featuring superior toughness, excellent hardness and great wear resistance, S30V steel has high amounts of carbon and vanadium to provide superior edge-holding and abrasion resistance. S30V steel also offers users great corrosion resistance and improved ductility. With a chemical composition to prove it, S30V is a premium, high-performing steel great for everyday use.

Coated Blades

Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) coating is often even tougher than the blade steel underneath it. DLC-coated blades offer extra hardness, high corrosion resistance, excellent wear resistance and a low friction coefficient so particles do not easily attach to the blade. DLC coatings display properties similar to a natural diamond that add beauty and attractive shine.

Fast Deployment

Using a torsion bar to move the blade out of the handle, Kershaw’s revolutionary SpeedSafe Assisted Opening system enables smooth, secure, fast one-handed blade deployment. Apply manual pressure to the flipper or thumb stud with a light push or pull back to overcome resistance of the torsion bar, and the blade opens smoothly and locks into place for confident handling without premature closure.

Secure Locking System

With two steel plates, or liners, on the inside of each handle scale, the liner locking system safely secures the blade open and prevents unwanted blade closure. The lockbar butts up against the blade’s backend to prevent closure, and angles or is bent towards the blade tang creating a bias locked position. Apply manual force to move the lockbar to the side and fold the blade back into the handle.

Exceptional Quality

Laminate

Clip

Knives with SpeedSafe open have two options for one-handed blade deployment. To activate the smooth, instant open, user can push a thumbstud or press a flipper. The flipper on SpeedSafe assisted knives is easy to operate by both left- and right-handed users. And, once blade swings open and locks into place, flipper either disappears for aesthetics or remains visible for added finger protection.

G-10 is a laminate composite, epoxy-filled woven glass fiber that is extremely stable, very lightweight, tough, hard, strong and unaffected by temperature changes. G-10 handles can be decoratively tinted, ground or polished in checkering, lines or other patterns to add texture. Excellent for heavy-use, tactical or utility knives, G-10 can be machined into shape providing a stronger grip.

Kershaw designs pocketclips to fit specific knives according to their weight, intended end use, size, style and hardware. Some knives have multiple carry options, others are more streamlined. The 4-position pocketclip allows tip-up or tip-down carry on both the right and left sides, providing users the most versatility. Proper use of the pocketclip promotes safety and efficiency while using knife.

Product Description

While the 0350TSST may look wilder with a bold tiger stripe blade, it has all the durable build and precision quality as the original ZT 0350. The 3. 25” blade is made of S30V stainless steel, known for its durability and corrosion and wear resistance, and finished with a tiger-stripe Tungsten DLC (Diamond-Like Carbon) coating. More than blade camouflage, the DLC coating offers extra blade hardness and friction reduction and partial blade serration gives extra cutting versatility, slicing through tougher and more fibrous materials with ease. Opening is quick and easy with the patented Speed Safe assisted opening system when a simple pull back on the flipper provides lightning fast one-handed blade activation. The blade is paired with matte black, textured, G-10 handle scales for excellent gripping power and mechanical strength. A locking liner secures the blade open during use. The 0350TSST also includes ZT’s quad-mount system and pre-drilled lanyard hole for complete carry versatility.

I cannot say enough great things about this knife!! Top quality, made right here in the USA! Once you hold this perfectly made knife you will instantly see how much of a quality built knife this really is. Using the flipper located on the spine, the blade opens with authoritah 😎 The thumb stud does work but not as great as the flipper tang. It is razor sharp, and holds an edge very well even after harsh daily use. This would also make a great defense knife, but the ZT0301 would be better suited for that roll. This is not saying anything negative about this knife though. I opted for the ZT0350TSST. I have no regrets whatsoever! This is THE best folding knife of this size I have ever owned. The serrations are razor sharp, & very aggressive. The handle feels awesome, and melts into your hand. It is big enough to give you a real good purchase when holding it, and you will feel very confident that your hand won't slip, or the lock fail and close when in use. Feels solid as a rock! The lock up is tight, with NO play, or wiggle. Free lifetime sharpening, and lifetime warranty. The knife does not ride low. The clip is 4 way adjustable though. You can get a low ride clip here on Amazon, for those that prefer that method of carry. I have one on order to try out, & will review after I receive & use it a while. The clip that comes on it can be adjusted like I mentioned, and is also high quality. It is very tight and will not fail. I would suggest that when putting it in your pocket, to simply lift on the end of the clip so as to let it pass over the seam of your pocket so you don't wear out the pocket seam. I highly reccomend this product, and feel I definitely got my money's worth with this purchase. This is something that will last a lifetime, and would make a great gift, or for anyone looking for top quality when purchasing their next knife.

The knife I received opened with a satisfying *thwack*, and unlike a ZT 0566 I recently returned
back to Amazon, the flipper was not super stiff. I like how strong the liner lock is.
The size is about perfect for me, and the G10 on the handles is a great balance between grip and
smoothness. I love this knife and the way it opens and how strong it is. And how sharp.

You can read any of the Zero Tolerance '350' model reviews here on Amazon (not just this stripe
blade model) and know what you can expect to get. Its a 4.5 star knife all the way, and will
stay that way no matter how many hundreds of people buy them. The reason why thats true is all
about the materials and construction. The design or style will not agree with everyone, obviously,
but any rational adult should be easily able to sense the build quality, the heft, and how those
things contribute to durability. People who give the ZT 350 series of knives 1 or 2 stars in
their reviews come and go, but these knives are monsters of quality, and will still be here long
after the infant brigade finds something else to complain about.

This is a quality knife. The handle is non-slip and the blade arrived sharp and ready for use. The serrated edge looks to be sturdy and ready to rip into anything I put it up against. The beaded-striped surface is unique and appears durable. The assist opening works flawlessly and easily. I will tend to use this a little less often as my Benchmade 970ST that I've been using for the last 16 years, that is a similar purpose knife. You won't regret getting this knife and the price is much better than what I've seen elsewhere.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good quality but bulky, and not really a thumb stud opener
Reviewed in the United States on December 8, 2017
Verified Purchase
Was looking around for a xmas gift for myself and saw all the excellent reviews of this knife, so I thought that I'd give it a go. My EDC has been a Kershaw spring-assisted opener for years and I really like it (in fact I have a couple of them boxed in the safe just in case Kershaw stops making them or I lose one). Like many of you reading this review, I've got a drawer full of EDC knives that I've carried over the years, but this Kershaw style has stuck with me. Plus, the Kershaw knives are almost always quite reasonably priced (it's not that I'm brand-loyal, but that's just the brand that has been meeting my expectation of good price and good product). Anyway, I got this Zero Tolerance knife a few days ago and here are my thoughts: I agree with other reviewers that the knife is bulky. It appears to be exceptionally well made, but so are other comparable knives. This one is just bulkier. Much as I like the "blade protrusion" form of opening, over the years I have grown to prefer the "thumb stud" for of opening (with spring assist of course). Even though this knife advertises both, if you prefer the thumb stud, I would not recommend this knife. The blade protrusion opener on this knife is excellent. The thumb stud manner, not so much. It's more of a blade stop that they've advertised as a thumb stud opener.

Short story is that this absolutely is an excellent knife, no doubt about it. And of course I'm always willing to pay a little more for things made in the USA. But it's bulky (right on the edge of what an EDC knife should be) and its expensive for what it is. My Kershaw (which is spring assist and the same blade length/width but a little less overall length and definitely thinner overall) is about half the price. I would wear this knife for hunting trips or at times when you are wearing enough clothes that concealment is not an issue (except I live in south Florida, so it's always light clothing). I held back one star purely due to price. No issues at all with quality.

This knife is bad ass, I usually always purchased cheaper knives no more than $40. Finally a decided to go to the next level and spend more money on a quality knife since I carry one every day. This knife is solid, it has no play whatsoever if you attempt to move the blade in the open position. It opens very smoothly and the grip is outstanding! It arrived very sharp right out of the box. Its my favorite knife I own and the size is great!
