Description

Very cool original design. My son wanted it to open and close fluidly so I needed to mod a bit.

I widened the handles to allow for more clearance between the knife and the frame (0.4mm per side).
Added a hole to put bolts in for weight (M4x5mm I think).
Reinforced the area where the knife blade contacts the handles as my original print was prone to breaking there. The little hole allows for a finishing nail or similar to take the load of the blade snapping open.

Resolution:

Infill:

25% Gyroid

Filament: Hello3D PLA Magic Coal, Grey and Silk Blue mixed 50-50% for the handles

Notes:

Printed the handles on their sides to have good strength lines around the pins. A little bit of work to get the supports out, but made easier my 'not supporting bridges'.

Have made three of these. PLA Super Tough is working amazingly but normal PLA has pins falling out constantly. Reprinted the pins slightly bigger and works well now.
