Zero Tolerance 0004 Cru-Wear Micarta
Code: ZT0004Related products
Product detailed description
The 0004 is an uncompromising tough knife designed to handle the toughest outdoor and bushcraft challenges. The clip-point blade is made from premium CPM Cru-Wear steel, which features exceptional wear resistance, high toughness and easy sharpening in the field. The surface of the blade is treated with a protective Cerakote coating in dark bronze to increase resistance to corrosion and scratches.
The natural micarta handle is 3D milled and ergonomically shaped to fit naturally in the hand and provide excellent control during handling. For easy cleaning, the knife can be completely disassembled with an Allen wrench. Removing the handle reveals a skeletonized steel shank that allows for paracord wrapping, expanding the knife's use in emergency situations.
The knife comes with a handcrafted sheath made from premium cowhide leather, tanned with natural vegetable tannins in a saddle tan shade. The sheath is designed for versatile carry - on the belt left or right, or in a horizontal position (scout carry). It is compatible with the Tek-Lok system and is decorated with embossed ZT logos on both sides.
The entire knife, including the materials, embodies American precision and craftsmanship. The choice of natural materials, such as micarta and leather, brings not only aesthetic appeal, but also uniqueness to each piece, thanks to the natural differences in texture and color. Model 0004 is thus an indispensable companion on adventurous journeys and in everyday life.

Zero Tolerance knives are currently one of the best tactical knives on the market. Designers Ken Onion, Strider and Tim Galyean combine with quality materials like CPM-S35V, Böhler N690 and Elmax to create a true American classic. ZT Knives are completely made in the USA.
Zero Tolerance is owned by Kai USA Ltd. The ZT brand first emerged in 2006, when the market saw a place for a line of Made-in-USA knives for heavy-duty use. They would also meet the needs of professionals in the military and law enforcement, as well as other first responders such as firefighters and paramedics.
The brand quickly developed a small but devoted fan base, including those who were not members of the first responders or the military. Whatever walk of life they came from, ZT owners loved the durable design and premium materials. They referred to the knives as "real beasts" and "proudly rebuilt."
Between 2006 and 2008, ZT created a mix of closing knives and fixed blades, including the military-style 0100 knife, the 0500 M.U.D.D. knife and the 0610ST tactical knife.
But it wasn't until 2009 that ZT created the model that became the foundation of the brand: the 0350. This SpeedSafe®-assisted knife was slightly smaller than many of ZT's larger knives, but still had considerable size. Still, the knife struck the perfect balance and helped appeal to a previously untapped audience - those who wanted a hefty knife, but one that was comfortable to carry in their pocket.
This idea carried over into 2010. ZT realized that the brand needed a transition. Although soldiers and first responders were still an important part of the audience, there were many more people who wanted a ZT. The team had a mission: to show this broader audience that if you invest in a premium knife, you'll appreciate its quality and durability.
And so ZT raised the bar.
In 2011, the groundbreaking 0777 model was introduced to the public. This stunning ZT Originals (in-house) design marked the first use of ZT's patented Sub-Frame Lock. Combined with carbon fiber blades, the 0777 is lightweight but retains the strength of a knife with a frame lock.
This limited edition won Knife of the Year at the BLADE Show. Although not many of these were produced, the knife has brought the ZT brand into considerable awareness. Later, ZT created a more affordable, consumer-friendly version, the 0770CF.
Because of its strong reputation, ZT is now known as one of the most trusted premium brands. No matter what type of knife user you are, ZT strives to offer something for everyone. Made in USA
