K Family
Characterized by distinct cluster hammer marks and a unique 'dirty' sound, these thin cymbals feature an unlathed bell and traditional K style hammering with additional cluster marks. This results in a darker, trashier sound with a fast attack and great response.

"Love this crash, didn't think the 16" sweet crash could be better but that cluster hammering truly is majic, favorite primary crash so far. Just know that the traditional finish means you will see every stick mark and fingerprintŸ˜‚"
"I went into the store looking for another cymbal... tried this one out (the 20"), and immediately fell in love. It's SO versatile! Dark, but trashy, but with a ton of sustain, and beautiful undertones."
"I use the 20" K Cluster as my main crash. It's dark complex and very musical at all dynamics. it has hints of trashiness, although I wish it was a little trashier. Super thin so it opens up really easily. Best of all is it's durable. So far it has held up extremely well. Been playing mine for well over a year now. Personally, it's my favourite crash that zildjian offers. I would love zildjian to add even more trashier cymbals, something like a 20" k light crash or similar"
