Outdoor Edge has announced the immediate availability of the company’s Pivot fixed-blade knives. The Pivot represents a redesign of the company’s popular LeHawk and LeDuck knives. The new Pivot line is available with either a 2.6-inch Wharncliffe blade or a 2.5-inch drop-point blade.

HANDY SIZE OUTDOOR EDGE PIVOT

The new Pivot offers an ergonomically redesigned rubberized thermoplastic rubber handle that fits safely and securely in the hand. It can serve as either a backup blade for a survival situation or as a primary blade when you’re traveling light.

PIVOT HAS VERSATILE SHEATH

The Pivot also features a 360-degree rugged polypropylene rotating sheath system with a removable clip that attaches to any belt, pack, flotation or diving vest. It’s compatible with any MOLLE system, allowing for a multitude of carry options. In addition, the sheath quickly converts into a neck knife with the included paracord.

When sheathed, the knives will also fit easily into a pants pocket, or inside the glovebox of your vehicle. The superior edge retention and performance on the Pivot knives, is afforded by the Blackstone-coated stainless steel blades that are precisely heat treated and hand finished shaving sharp, making them the perfect blade for a variety of cutting tasks.

Wharncliffe Pivot

Aside from the drop-point model, the Pivot is also available with a Wharncliffe blade.
