Perfect action after a couple tries at printing it! initially, I tried printing it with a .6 Nozzle, but the hooks were too round to catch. I am sure the optimized Hooks version would have worked better, but I just reprinted it with a .4 Nozzle, assembled it, and after working it a few times to remove microboogers and some stringing, it works with every flick! Pretty much never gets stuck in the middle or doesnt trigger.

He even shows the comb attachment

There is a youtube video by The Plop where he uses this EXACT SAME MODEL for this video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2TL1PyxMndc

Great print, everything works as it should.
Thank you :)

Print got stuck to the bed and broke, any advice?

nice to have but it feels a little cheap / instable

it does not go together and that is that

Really nice knife, works great with the strongest spring but is hard to do. Had to print with weaker spring for my son (who is the one who wanted it) to be able to use it, and that one doesn't work quite as well (presumably due to the spring being weaker).

Fun toy! Printed on PLA+, and for me it works the best with slider-with-strong-springs. My friends enjoy it. (edited)
