I was recently given a Zero Tolerance knife as a gift. This is the Ken Onion / Strider creation with an assisted opening blade. When I first got it I thought, that is a big pocket knife and seemed a little too hollywood for me. But after handling it and carrying it, I found it to be one of the best feeling knives I've ever owned. I haven't had it very long and was wondering if anyone has played with one and found any negative points?
Thanks all:munchin

Yes sir, it's a Strider/Kershaw/Ken Onion collaboration. Not sure of exact percentage, but some amount of the price of these is donated to one of the disabled veteran's organizations.

Paralyzed Veterans of America Heritage Fund, that helps provide outdoor sports activities (trap shooting, fishing tournaments, hunting trips, etc.) to disabled veterans.

Thanks Razor, I couldn't remember which one it was.
Hey, Didn't you say that those guys invade one of the ski slopes near you once a year and it looks like a Capital one commercial?:D

Annually, during the first week of April (when skiing is pretty much hit or miss), the DAV and the VA co-host the National Disabled Veterans Winter Sports Clinic. There are usually over 300 attendees, along with a couple hundred volunteer instructors, equipment repair folks, and medical assistants. The slope is still open for normal customers, so it must be quite a sight for them to see hundreds of skiers who are blind, missing one or multiple limbs, paralyzed, or suffering from a brain injury zooming down the slopes. They also provide equipment and instruction for nordic skiing, snowshoeing, SCUBA familiarization in the pools, sport wall climbing, snowmobiling, and a host of activities. Its quite an event, and is really good for a newly injured veteran to see what they can still do despite their injury.

NDD,
Well..when you put it like that :D
Seriously..nothing at all wrong, guess I should have asked if anyone had used one before and their thoughts.
Since I have had it for a few days..I really like it.
