EKA SwingBlade knife

By Charlotte Lycett Green

Wednesday, 28 July 2010

This bright-handled knife is ideal for those forgetful stalkers who have the expensive habit of leaving their knives where they’ve gralloched a deer.

Who hasn’t lost a knife at some time or other? With its orange handle, however, this one might be harder to mislay.

The SwingBlade is a dual-purpose knife with an unusual action.

By pushing the lock button the blade changes from a drop-point skinner to a functional gutting knife — this feels a little awkward initially, but would no doubt become easier with practice.

It is hand-finished from Sandvik 12C27 stainless steel and the rubberised Kraton handle provides a non-slip grip, even when the knife is wet.

It also comes with a nylon belt sheath.

PRICE:

£75
