Photos Swedge me!! (Livin’ on the swedge)

Here are two of my favorites. :)

The Emerson CQC-7 has one of my favorite grinds of all time, and a big part of that is down to the swedge.

All of Hinderer's Bowie blades have a killer swedge, but there's something about it on the XM-24 that I just love.

Back in the late '90s when I bought two Large Regular Sebenzas, I chose to have one be the basic plain model and for variety had them do double thumbstuds and a swedge on the second one...which, unfortunately, is in storage, so no pics. 😢
 
What is a swedge good for?

I like a flat, 90-degree spine that can be used for scraping things.

Who says you can’t have a swedge AND a portion that is 90°?

Swedges are good for penetration. You’re welcome. 😉

For instance, when I was in Hawaii, I wanted to poke a hole in a coconut…the swedge helped.
Also, that is not an easy thing to do. 🤣😂

I’d love to put a swedge on one of my 21’s. Hmmmm….
