I have no idea who Zac Snyder is, but we looked all over the internet for a fake knife to go with my 10 yr-old's toy guns for playing in the woods with his cousin.  All the others' reviews were that they were cheap and broke easily.  This one is thicker than a real knife, more "toy-like" and not easily broken.  My son loves the sheath, although I'm not sure how long the pleather will hold up, but even after it "dies" the knife can be tucked into his belt.  I know he'll enjoy it for some time!
