ZERO TOLERANCE 0022 KVT GALYEAN CERAMIC BLAST

Yes. This is the smallest ZT we’ve ever made. And yes, it’s an impressive piece of engineering.

Designed by Tim Galyean and precision built by Zero Tolerance, the 0022 practically disappears in your pocket—until it’s needed. Of course, the 0022 is adept at a full range of cutting tasks around home and office. Yet we’re sure that some of you will also find it a useful accompaniment to deep thought, flipping it open and closed, again and again.

The 0022’s under-two-inch blade is made of CPM 20CV steel for superior hardness and corrosion resistance, as well as toughness, wear resistance, and excellent edge retention. The handle features a carbon fiber front scale with stonewashed titanium back. And even though it’s small, the 0022 is designed for hand comfort with deep finger contours to ensure a good grip.

For eye-catching looks, ZT added a decorative pivot with a blue-anodized pivot ring and matching tube spacers, which make an attractive contrast with the dark carbon fiber. ZT’s smooth KVT ball-bearing opening makes it quick, easy—and somewhat addictive—to open and close the 0022. Whether as an office-appropriate EDC or even as a backup knife, the compact 0022 packs an outsized punch of performance and quality.

Big knife construction in an easy to carry size!

Great knife. Big knife construction in an easy to carry size. Awesome. Don’t even know it’s in your pocket but it’s always on hand when you need it.

a bit hard to flip open at first

a bit hard to flip open one-handed at first. hopefully after some use it will loosen up. might be easier to flip open using a fingernail to pull on the jimping instead of pressure from a fingertip. other than that, it seems good.

You can’t really appreciate it until you hold it

Holding it closed you think, “did I get ripped off?” It seems like such a small dinky thing. I mean all the machining and fit and finish are first rate. But could something this small be seen as a useful knife? Then I open it and it fits perfectly in my hand. Not fit, actually. It locks. Locks in the hand. And then I use it for EDC tasks and I go “ooohhhh maybe those guys at ZT know what they’re doing.”

This is my endgame EDC knife.
