A directional air knife, components thereof, and associated methods. The air knife includes a housing that comprises an inlet opening which receives air under pressure into the housing along a first inlet axis. A chamber is defined within the housing and positioned to receive air that passes through the inlet opening along the first inlet axis. A discharge duct is defined by the housing and includes a discharge channel within the discharge duct. The discharge channel is in fluid communication with the chamber which receives the air under pressure. The housing defines an outlet opening through which the air under pressure passes out of the discharge duct. The discharge channel has a second central axis along which the air under pressure flows to the outlet opening and out of the housing. The second central axis is arranged with respect to the first inlet axis at a skew angle.
