Zero Tolerance: 0566 - Hinderer

Zero Tolerance: ZT0566 - ZT Hinderer

A MORE COMPACT VERSION OF THE 0560

Zero Tolerance Knives and Rick Hinderer team up again to create the new Zero Tolerance 0566. More compact than its larger brothers, the 0560 and 0561, the new 0566 is built for pure performance in an EDC-perfect size.

On the performance end, the blade is pure CPM-S35VN powdered steel. With almost no impurities in the steel, the 0566’s blade can be sharpened to hair-popping levels—and also offers excellent edge retention, strength, and toughness. For a secure grip, the front scale is textured G-10. The back is all stainless steel with a sturdy frame lock and lockbar stabilizer. The 0566 offers Zero Tolerance's quad-mounting system so users can choose tip-up/tip-down, left- or right-handed carry. And because it's a deep-carry clip, the knife will sit comfortably deep in the pocket.

For Rick Hinderer style in an easy-carry size, the new 0566 fits the bill.

Features

• Made in the USA

Specifications

The 0566 is the perfect compromise of compact size, durability, and comfort.

By reducing the size just enough from its predecessors, ZT has struck the perfect balance. The stainless steel construction and robust locking mechanism maintain a feeling of beefiness without taking up quite as much room as the larger Hinderer models.

The 0566 blade is CPM-S35VN powdered steel, a highly refined steel which is formulated to have great edge holding, toughness, and stain resistance. The blade opens on ZT’s SpeedSafe Assist system, a spring-assisted opening that launches the blade open once you push on the flipper tab.

When open, it is totally secured thanks to the built-in framelock. The blade has no play, and the lockbar has no unwanted lock-stick. Thanks to the integrated lockbar stabilizer and a stainless steel lockbar insert, ZT has ensured that this knife will keep functioning just as well as it does on day one. It's built to withstand a lifetime of use and remain totally dependable.

The corners of the handle are chamfered for relief and comfort, and strategically placed jimping (grooves) on the front and back of the handle add even more grip to the ergonomic design. The end of the handle sports a built-in lanyard hole and a deep-carry clip that can be carried on the right or left side.

Zero Tolerance is filling an important spot in the knife industry with knives like the 0566, making a high-quality and totally accessible version of a custom maker’s ingenious design.

The manufacturer does not allow this item to be sold internationally.
