A line blade for a rotating trimmer includes a loading section securable for rotation on a cutting plane with a head of the rotating trimmer. A living hinge extends from the loading section. A transition section extends from the living hinge and has a first cross-sectional shape. The first cross-sectional shape is configured and oriented to reduce drag. A cutting segment extending from the transition section has a second cross-sectional shape that is different from the first cross-sectional shape of the transition section, where the second cross-sectional shape is configured and oriented for cutting vegetation. The multi-zone line blade improves cutting at lower speeds, thereby requiring less power.
