Hm. How are you connecting to swank? I use M-x slime-connect (then hit yes/<RET> a few times); as soon as that's done, a new buffer with the clojure REPL appears. Then I can switch to it just as with any buffer; C-x C-o or similar. The buffer it creates is called *slime-repl clojure*. That should be all you have to do. I'm curious what you're doing, to cause swank to "work", but not give you a REPL.
