Zero Tolerance knives are designed and manufactures in the USA. They are made from premium materials and are designed with quality in the forefront of their mind. ZT knives were first introduced to the market in 2006, having seen a gap in made-in-the-USA knives, they created their range of hard-use knives, which meet the needs of professionals such as, military, law enforcement and other first responders, such as firefighters and emergency medical personnel. In the beginning, ZT only produced combat knives. However, the brand has now expanded to a variety of general-use and premium knives. Because these knives are made out of high quality, durable materials, they are not known for being light. However, many people still use these knives as everyday-carry knives. Zero Tolerance is a brand that produces USA-made premium pocketknives known for their precision machining, superior craftsmanship, and the use of ultra-premium materials. They uphold a higher standard of performance in their products.

All Zero Tolerance knives come with a full lifetime warranty covering all manufacturing defects and are repaired or replaced directly through Elite Outdoor Gear.
