Outdoor Edge SwingBlade Rotating Fixed Blade Knife Orange OESZ-20NC

The Outdoor Edge SwingBlade Rotating Fixed Blade Knife is one of the most innovative hunting knives on the market today, designed to make field dressing faster, safer, and more efficient. With a simple push of the lock button, this clever two-in-one design transforms instantly from a razor-sharp drop point skinner into Outdoor Edge’s signature gutting blade. Instead of carrying multiple knives into the field, hunters and guides can rely on one versatile tool that handles the toughest game-processing tasks with ease. This rotating fixed blade design not only saves time but also eliminates the hassle of switching between separate tools, making it a favorite among professional hunters worldwide.

What truly sets the SwingBlade apart is the gutting blade. Unlike traditional straight blades, Outdoor Edge’s gutting blade opens game like a zipper, gliding smoothly underneath the skin while avoiding hair. The blunt tip prevents accidental puncturing of internal organs, which can spoil fresh meat in seconds. This precision tool allows hunters to preserve meat quality while working quickly and efficiently. Many seasoned guides trust the SwingBlade specifically for its ability to reduce mess, prevent waste, and deliver consistent results in the field.

The 3.6-inch Japanese AUS-8 stainless steel drop point blade and 3.2-inch gutting blade are heat treated and hand finished to ensure they arrive shaving-sharp straight out of the box. AUS-8 steel is well known for its balance of toughness, edge retention, and corrosion resistance, making it ideal for outdoor use in all weather conditions. With a Rockwell hardness rating of 57-58, the SwingBlade holds its edge reliably, even after extensive use on tough hides and bone. This durability gives hunters confidence that their knife will perform season after season.

Equally impressive is the handle. Constructed from rubberized thermoplastic rubber (TPR), the ergonomic blaze-orange handle provides a non-slip grip that remains secure even in wet, cold, or bloody conditions. The contoured design is shaped to reduce hand fatigue during long processing sessions, ensuring maximum comfort in the field. The blaze-orange color not only gives the knife a rugged, high-visibility look but also makes it easy to spot on the ground, preventing accidental loss during hunting trips. When every minute counts, these details make a real difference.

Measuring 8.3 inches overall and weighing just 7.2 ounces, the SwingBlade delivers full-sized performance in a lightweight, packable design. The included nylon belt sheath allows hunters to carry it securely on their hip, ensuring it is always within reach when needed most. Whether you’re breaking down a trophy buck or preparing wild game for the freezer, this knife’s dual-blade versatility, professional-grade steel, and field-ready ergonomics make it an indispensable part of any hunter’s gear.

The Outdoor Edge SwingBlade Rotating Fixed Blade Knife is more than just a tool—it’s a trusted hunting companion built to perform under pressure. Hunters who demand efficiency, safety, and durability in their knives consistently turn to the SwingBlade for its unmatched combination of versatility and reliability.

The 3.6-inch Japanese AUS-8 stainless steel skinner blade and blaze-orange rubberized TPR handle make the Outdoor Edge SwingBlade a durable, high-visibility hunting essential.
