The Cad Lab Collaboration

Cad Lab CNC is another small American shop, and these are the finishes they put on the Zero-G. Rivery has run Cad Lab collaborations before on the original Zero, and they tend to be the versions people hold onto.

When the run is done it is done.

Green

The one that reads as gear rather than as a statement. Green sits closest to what people expect from a working tool out of the four colors in this run, so it is the Cad Lab you can carry on a job site without anybody asking about it.

How it works

Slide the show side scale forward to deploy the blade. Release it and dual internal magnets and a spring snap it back with a click and clack that turns a utility knife into something you reach for out of habit.

There is not a single screw in the chassis. What holds it together is geometry and precision, which is the part that makes this a $145 utility knife instead of a $9 one.

The Flush Pivot clip

The Zero-G introduced a Flush Pivot pocket clip that sits lower than the older design, so it rides flatter and catches less on a pocket seam. A machined lanyard hole gives you the other carry option.

Blades it takes

The Zero-G uses common trapezoid utility blades. Rivery lists Workpro SK5 at 61mm, Dewalt Carbide Edge, Rapid Edge Serrated, Milwaukee, Titan, Berkling SK2h Black, Jet SK5 Titanium Coated, Stanley 11-800L, and selected generic SK5 blades. Fiskars and ceramic blades are not compatible.

Made in Tennessee

Rivery Manufacturing started as a small CNC operation in Sevierville and grew around the Zero. Michael Sayers designs every product in house. A small American shop reworking a tool most people overlook, done with real precision, is exactly what we like carrying.
