Our Opinion
Based on the product description, the ZT 0006 appears to be a well-made, versatile fixed blade knife that would be a good option for survival, outdoor activities, and everyday projects. The 6-inch CPM 3V steel blade is tough and resists chipping, and the bead-blasted Cerakote coating provides added durability. The olive green G10 handle is comfortable and provides a good grip, even in wet or oily conditions. The Kydex sheath with a secondary retention strap is secure and allows for safe carrying.
Here are some additional thoughts to consider:
- The 6-inch blade may be a bit large for some people's everyday carry needs.
- CPM 3V steel is a good choice for a tough, corrosion-resistant blade, but it may be difficult to sharpen in the field.
- G10 is a durable handle material, but it can be a bit grippy on bare skin.
Overall, the ZT 0006 appears to be a high-quality fixed blade knife that would be a good option for a variety of tasks. However, it is important to consider your own needs and preferences before making a purchase.
About
Whether it’s for survival, the great outdoors, or summer projects, the military inspired 0006 is the answer. Though it pays homage to the original ZT-9 with a steel guard, this full-tang beast is not a bayonet. Instead, this versatile ZT fits snugly in a durable Kydex sheath for travel. Named after its 6-inch blade, the 0006 uses CPM 3V, a tough tool steel that resists edge chipping during the hardest work tasks. While this non-stainless steel wasn’t designed for corrosion resistance, ZT added a clear Cerakote coating for greater durability. It’s a thick blade at 3/16 inches, but still plenty functional. The rounded profile fills the hand without being too big, and an olive G10 handle offers comfortable grip. Choke up on the aggressive jimping with or without gloves for greater control. When ZT makes a fixed blade, there’s nothing else like it. The 0006 is no exception.
