## Overview

The Zero Tolerance Sinkevich Pocketknife 0462 features a premium 3.7-inch 20CV Crucible steel blade with satin finish, paired with a red and gray carbon fiber front scale and a titanium back. Its KVT ball-bearing system enables smooth, ambidextrous manual opening, while the titanium frame lock with hardened steel insert ensures secure, wobble-free use. Weighing only 3.7 ounces and measuring 8.9 inches overall, this knife balances durability, style, and portability, making it a top-tier choice for professionals and collectors alike.

## Description

Zero Tolerance enhanced the already amazing 0460 to make the new 0462 a truly galactic pocket folder. Designed by custom knife maker, Dmitry Sinkevich, the 0462 boasts a uniquely curved handle made increasingly handsome by front scale woven with red and gray carbon fiber. An artistic, satin stainless steel pivot offers additional allure and complements the upswept 20CV Crucible steel blade and its superior edge retention and extreme durability. Supersized to nearly four inches of cutting edge, 0462’s blade balances beautifully thanks to the handle’s interior milling where carbon fiber was skeletonized to accommodate a discreet ZT logo and keep excess weight to a minimum. The 0462’s unbranded blade delivers style far beyond that of most manufactured knives. Additionally, its stonewashed titanium handle back is virtually maintenance free, repelling stains and hiding scratches, scuffs, fingerprints and other imperfections that simply can’t compete in the spectacular realm of the 0462.

## Features

- KVT ball-bearing system enables blade to deploy smoothly as user pulls back on ambidextrous flipper; KVT assist causes a traditional manual open to release both quickly and easily
- Reversible pocketclip allows left- or right-side carry in tip-up position; holes to accommodate reverse pocketclip have tiny stainless steel collars, another fine detail not seen in most knives
- Titanium frame lock and hardened steel lockbar insert guarantee knife stays during use; they protect against unintentional foldback and prevent wiggle no matter how rigorous the task at hand
- ZT’s 0462 makes impressive gift for celebrating life’s most special moments, including birthdays, holidays, graduations, anniversaries, promotions, weddings, military enlistments or career changes
- Blade length is 3.7 inches; blade thickness is 0.156 inches; closed length is 5.25 inches; overall length is 8.9 inches; despite extra length and thickness, 0462 is fine-tuned to weigh only 3.7 ounces

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Im still trying to figure out why a pocket knife is $235? It must be the prestige of having one. Yes thats it!**
A: You don't get to play with most pieces of art; most investments aren't also useful tools; and most tools aren't very interesting to collect.  The first time you buy a $100 knife you feel guilty and a bit foolish, but before you find yourself considering a $500 blade and thinking, "what a steal!"  And sometimes that's genuinely the case:  I paid exactly $500 for my ZT 0888 just a few years ago.  It has appreciated a quite nicely.

**Q: Is this knife superior to Benchmade Griptilian?**
A: While the Griptilian is a fantastic knife, I would say this is a better knife. The ZT 462 boasts an upgraded steel(CPM 20 CV vs.CPM S30V) , with a longer blade (3.7 " with a 4" cutting edge vs  3.45 on the Griptilian), carbon fiber and titanium scales (vs. g10 or nylon with the Griptilian). The one thing the Benchmade will offer you is the lifesharp guarantee. 
Both are excellent knives, in my opinion, the ZT is an upgrade.

**Q: Can this auto-deploy from a pocket as you are pulling it out?**
A: No, you would be looking for an Emerson wave, they catch on the pocket and come out open

**Q: What can I put on the scales to protect the carbon fiber that won't break down the resin? - preferably to increase, or at least not decrease the grip.**
A: I've been carrying mine daily for the past 2'ish years and don't notice any problems with the carbon fiber.  It is in a pocket that has my keys and a second Sig Sauer magazine on occasion.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Usable piece of art.
*by K***Y on September 29, 2018*

I'm a big EDC junky lol , everything from high end customs to the basics. Currently in my edc rotation are Spyderco, Benchmades, and ofcourse Zero Tolerance😜. As of now my ZT's are in my opinion my personal favorites for edc and every day use. The only complaint " be it a small one" is that most of my ZT's are kinda chunky meaning a little on the heavy side however the 0462 weighing in at under 4 ounces is just perfect. The action is buttery smooth, the blade centering is spot on, and the fit and finish is pretty darn close to blades that have cost me 4x as much. The deployment is fast, really fast however the knife isn't small by any means and it's a attention hog with its red carbon fiber, it's titanium frame lock , and it's fairly intimidating Persian style blade. The blade steel is in my opinion one of the best for folders(CPM20CV) with edge retention, durability, and with practice resharpening. My tools get used daily for utilitarian tasks, boxes, cordage, food prep and so on though I can see this blade coming in handy in a "tactical" self defense situation. I guess the best blade to have is the one on you however if you want something close to a high end custom thats usable for everyday tasks I would highly recommend this piece its a beutiful and usable knife which has performed extremely well for my everyday carry needs.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Looks pretty, but just as tough any other ZT
*by H***H on October 15, 2019*

The media could not be loaded. The 0462 is Zero Tolerance purchase # 17 for me, that is, it is the most recently purchased model of the 17 ZT knives I own. I really love ZTs: people can argue over how much they like or dislike particular designs, you can always buy a ZT and be confident you will get a top-quality knife made with premium materials, ultra-fine tolerances, and the smoothest blade action of any production knife in the world.The reason thr 0462 was my 17 ZT and not my first, second, or third was that I was always a little skeptical about the design. It's a big knife, and the combination of the curved handled and upswept blade made me wonder if perhaps it was more of a "show knife" vs a knife that could be used for hard work. And it is a show knife, if that's what you want it for--that big, satin, Persian style blade looks amazing with the red carbon fiber. But I should have remembered that if it was a ZT it was going to be more than solid enough for hard use, and it most definitely is. Despite its somewhat delicate appearance, this knife is solid enough to handle whatever (non-prying or striking) jobs you want to thow at it.Secondly, like most knives whose handles are a combination of a titanium or steel frame lock on one side, and a carbon fiber scale on the other, this knife would not be good for lefties. This is because of the slightly imbalanced weight; the carbon scale is noticeably lighter, despite milled and chamfered pockets inside the titanium scale to reduce its weight (a nice, custom-style sort of detail, and the ZT logo is etched in there as well). The uneven weight causes the knife to want to push a little to the right, and if it's held in the right hand this is a good thing because the knife is literally leaning in towards the hand holding it, making it sit more securely. Conversely, if held in the left hand the effect means the knife will by trying to lean away from the hand, making it harder to hold onto. The effect isn't huge but it is noticeable, and for that reason not recommended for left-handed people.For we non-sinister, dexterous 90% however, this is an outstanding knife, whether you plan to beat it up or just admire it as a piece of sharp art.A couple of things to note about the 0462: the action is so smooth that the blade can easiy drop shut with enough force to slice fingers. The attached video is a demonstration of the remarkable action, and the green bandage.wraps on my fingers are so they don't get sliced off as I tried to film with one hand and eye, and work the knife with the others.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Drop shut, smooth and beautiful design
*by O***N on December 4, 2023*

Easily the smoothest bearing action ZT I own out of a 0470, 0393glcf, 0562ti, 0452rdbw and 0456. I bought this just to look at and handle more than anything. It's a beautiful design that I decided I needed to have before it's discontinued as I feel it probably will be soon. It's got a drop shut glass action. The detent is perfect for the flipper size and blade weight. The red weave carbon is darker in person and looks like a maroon or burgundy which is nice. The TI is machined well and has lots of relief cuts in it so it doesn't weight much for its size. Two bad things the clip is absolute garbage must be replaced and the blade geometry isn't the best, its a little thick. It really needs a full flat grind or a deep hollow to make it a better cutting tool. Overall an amazing knife for the money.
