4/8/2023 0 Comments Strider knives special edition![]() ![]() This knife wasn’t designed for stabbing, it was designed to hold up to hard use tasks. The blade steel is thick (4mm) and it holds the thickness all the way to the tip. What I really like about this knife is the big belly on the blade. It features a high flat grind, and a partial swedge near the top. The blade is a modified drop point, marked by Ken Onion’s signature styling. I feel that whether the knife is “too heavy” is up to you, so I’m not going to pass judgment in that regard. I’ll admit, it’s not my ideal EDC and this is definitely a knife that you don’t forget that is in your pocket, but I have carried it no problem with a sturdy pair of shorts or jeans. This is a heavy knife and the weight may deter some people from wanting to carry it. The total length is 9″, the blade is 3-3/4″ and the weight is a solid 8.6 ounces. The 0300 has the profile of a bulldozer and it is incredibly stout. The size and heft of this knife are the first things you notice. The ZT 0301 has a Forest Green handle and Tiger Striped blade finish and the ZT 0302 has a Coyote Brown handle with a Tiger Striped blade finish. Pictured in this review is the black on black 0300. ![]() All the knives in the 0300 Zero Tolerance line (which include the 0300, 03) are identical except for the color schemes. When you get two powerhouses like this in the same room working on a knife that is made in the USA with the fit and finish Kershaw is known for – well, I start to pay attention.īefore we go forward I need to say that “0300” is used to designate the coloration of the knife. Ken Onion is known for making a lot of really nice designs for Kershaw (and now CRKT) and Strider is known for making some of the toughest folders in the world. So I wasn’t surprised to learn that the 0300 was a collaboration between Ken Onion and the Strider Knife Corporation. The graceful curves reminded me of some deep sea mammal while the construction reminded me of a semi truck. When Zero Tolerance first came on the scene the 0300 is one of their knives that really caught my eye.
