The eye-catching design, high quality materials and high functionality make the ZT Galyean 0022 very popular among ecd enthusiasts and hi-end knife enthusiasts.

Premium steel

The 49mm long blade was made of CPM-S20V powder steel hardened to 59-61 HRC. CPM-S20V is a "super-steel", which with its parameters corresponds to Bohler M390 stainless steel.

Thanks to its high chromium content and high amount of vanadium carbides, it is characterized by exceptionally good corrosion and wear resistance, and very long retention of sharpness.

When choosing a knife made of such steel, it is worth getting a diamond sharpener, as sharpening with a standard ceramic whetstone can be very labor-intensive and inefficient.

The small head, with a utilitarian clip-point profile, has a matte stonewashed finish, which perfectly masks the blade's scratches and also nullifies light reflections.

Thanks to the aggressive tip and flat grind, the blade penetrates perfectly and provides very good cutting properties. A transverse milling has been made on the back of the blade, which creates a very stable point of support for the thumb or index finger.

Convenient unfolding

The blade is unfolded with one hand using a milled flipper, a solution convenient for both right and left-handed users.

KVT ball bearings were installed on the axis of the head, thanks to which the blade works very smoothly and dynamically, which every user will appreciate during everyday use.

A monolithic frame-lock equipped with a hardened steel insert against titanium abrasion effectively protects the head from accidental folding.

Frame-lock is a solid lock considered one of the most durable locking mechanisms, characterized by resistance to dirt and very comfortable operation.

Striking handle

One of the most attractive elements of the Zero Tolerance ZT Galyean 0022 knife is certainly its handle. The knife's liners are made of titanium (frame-lock) and carbon fiber (front liner).

The handle has anatomical cutouts for the fingers, which effectively affects the comfort of use and prevents the knife from slipping from the hand. Elements that wonderfully accentuate the high class of the knife are the blue anodized collar of the main bolt and the spacer.

Easy carrying

Thecompact size, combined with the minimal weight of 50 g, make the knife a companion in our daily activities. This is facilitated by a high-set clip (which can be switched to both sides), which allows the knife to be carried discreetly in a pocket.

Zero Tolerance ZT Galyean 0022 is a compact folder with a striking design, excellent finish and working mechanics that will satisfy any knife enthusiast.
