Re: AGA Campolin Zero
I like it too, but not enough "like" to shell out over $171 (after VAT elimination), and for plastic handle material to boot?
A very significant price reduction would be necessary for me to be a buyer.

Re: AGA Campolin Zero
I subscribed to Angelo's newsletter. A few days ago he sent an email featuring the new Zero.The knife looks awesome.
I have to agree with Natchetly; it would require a significant price drop for me to add one to my collection.

Re: AGA Campolin Zero
I still like the Leverletto better, but great to see something new.

Re: AGA Campolin Zero
So first they morph the traditional stiletto with a leverlock, now they hybridize stiletto with mikov? Except this one is even more overpriced
As said before me, I think a handle material other than plastic is in order before I drop this kinda money on it.

Re: AGA Campolin Zero
A stiletto Mikov for sure, and a bit high priced.....

Nice shape
I like the swedge blade aswell .
Its nice to see anything new in the switchblade world as it can lead to many new customs and scale materials additions as time goes on .

Re: AGA Campolin Zero
I like it too but, it resembles the b-stealth and I would prefer a button over the lever. Guess you just can't out do the old school stilettos. Just my opinion but that's pretty much why we're all here anyway.

Re: AGA Campolin Zero
Very cool. I've always had a soft spot for those old school checkered scales.
Re: AGA Campolin Zero
Many "purists" will not take to a new design at first but in some cases will eventually warm-up to the concept.
I personally find it refreshing to see a bold new design come along.
I have no problem with the plastic scales because it leaves room for customization and being a "user" the plastic would fare better in everyday tasks.

Re: AGA Campolin Zero
Hi Dave aka Viking,
Thanks for posting those photos. When I first saw these on Angelo's website I didn't see the laser etching on lever and spring. It's nicely done. The knife is entirely put together with screws. Scales could be easily changed. However, it is somewhat overpriced. I'd like to add one to my collection but not at $200.
