PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The SwingBlade® from Outdoor Edge brings unmatched versatility to your field kit. Engineered with two powerful blades in one unit: a 3.6-inch drop-point skinner for sweeping, clean cuts, and a 3.2-inch gut-hook, designed to open game like a zipper without damaging organs or cutting hair. Change between them simply by pushing the lock button — safe, fast, and intuitive.

Constructed from Aichi AUS-8 stainless steel, the blades are subzero-quenched and hand-finished for a shaving-sharp edge with excellent resistance to dulling and rust. With a hardness of ~57-58 Rockwell C, this knife maintains a keen edge under tough field conditions.

The ergonomic handle is crafted from rubberized TPR for a non-slip grip even when wet, while its balanced design delivers control without hand fatigue. Everything comes together in a durable nylon belt sheath that keeps the SwingBlade secure and accessible when you need it most. Weighing in at 7.2 oz (≈205 g) with an overall length of 8.3″ (21.1 cm), the SB-10N is packed with performance yet easy to carry in the field.

Backed by Outdoor Edge’s Service for Life guarantee, this knife is built to perform season after season — whether caping, dressing, or gutting, the SwingBlade becomes your trusted go-to.

Tip broke

The tip on my drop point blade broke about 3/4 of an inch down. Can I purchase a replacement blade?

Awesome knife! Great sharpness on both blades makes for fast clean field dressing

Love this Knife

I was gifted the Swing Blade a number of years ago as a Service Award. The AUS-8 is a good steel. I have field dressed many White Tail deer with it and I have not sharpened the knife yet. You do need to be careful when you swing between the two blades. I will pass the knife to my Son when I can no longer Deer hunt due to my age.

Good but not great.

The functionality while unique doesn’t completely offset the durability of the knife as a whole. The edge adequately maintains its sharpness as the handle slowly deteriorates. At approximately 8 years old the orange handle appears to exceeded its cohesion. While mine has turned to the consistency of paraffin I recommend a more traditional bone or wood handle hunting knife.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of the Swingblade. While the older models do have a rubber handle coating that has been shown to break down over time, we stopped using that material some time again and our newer models have a hard plastic handle. This is an issue that's covered under our lifetime warranty program, so please file a claim at the following link if you haven't already and we'll replace the knife for you: https://www.outdooredge.com/pages/contact-us.

Most used deer knife

The 2 knives I purchased are for gifts for guys that were introduced to working up deer with a SwingBlade, 1 was a mule deer in Colorado and the other a whitetail in West Virginia. I consider this knife to be the best of combination of design and good steel. I currently own 2 or 3 of my own and have given another for a gift.

Thank you for your review! We are thrilled to hear that our SwingBlade is your go-to deer knife and that you have given it as a gift to others. We take pride in the design and quality of our product and we are happy to know that it has served you well.
