Update 25/2/2024: Fixed knife blade point.
I had noticed that there were not a lot of realistic pocket knife options out there, so I ended up CADing one. It turned out better than I had anticipated. It comes with a locking mechanism and two notches. One makes it so you can open the knife with your finger and wrist. The second notch makes it so you can open the knife by drawing it out of your pocket. And like all pocket knives, it comes with a pocket clip. If you happen to be left-handed, mirror the handle in Slic3r (Prusa Slicer) along the Z-axis. Remember, this is a 3D PRINTED KNIFE, so don't expect it to work like a real one. This is a work in progress so if you have any suggestions on making it better, please let me know by writing a comment. Enjoy!
I suggest using the print settings that you know work for printing this knife. However, there are a few things I should mention:
Note: The entire knife blade assembly shown in the pictures was printed on an MK3S+ using a 0.4mm nozzle diameter and PLA, at a layer height of 0.1mm. Ideally, PETG will probably work better.
And you're done!
Happy Printing!
