Hey guys, I'm thinking of snagging up a ZT Ferrous Wolf. I just wanted to see if anyone has one or has owned one and would give out an opinion on it. Cheers!

I had one (first of the 3 ZT I bought). Ended up selling it as I did not personally like it. It was a personal thing with the weight and balance.

Thanks for the input William, I have heard ZTs tend to be a bit heavy.

Zombie Tools are cool swords and I just did not like that particular model. I did buy their sort of Japanese style swords and kept them for the cool factor. The blades while good steel are not anywhere close to traditional geometry of the sword types they are loosely based on. That is just my observations from the 3 I have owned.

Yeah. I agree, their swords are kinda like art made for the apocalypse. The Ferrous looks cool but I also don't like the way it handles, but that goes for most of their big blades. I like their shorter blades but That's how I like my Tactical swords anyways: for two handed no longer than 27'' and for single handed I don't like then much longer than 25''

There's one newly posted on eBay, if you're serious about grabbing one. The current price is good; but that doesn't mean that it will end that way.

I'm a bit of a fan of ZT. I think it's no coincidence that they use the word "tools" in their business name, they are very much a workings mans weapon. I have the d'captian and really like it, but for a small sword it's really packs a punch, it's forward balanced & thick and there isn't much that could stand it's its way. Keep in mind that whilst they are brutal weapons they simply don't have the dramatic handeling of more traditional swords.
