Description

-UPDATE--------

-The Blade has been redesigned so that the smallest section of blade can no longer accidentally fall all the way into the handle. However, it does mean that you will have to print all the blade pieces all together at once. With this version each blade piece can only go inside the blade piece that is slightly bigger.

This version has the original blade design that will allow you to print each piece separately if you choose to.

 

 

The 3D-printed collapsible sword is a functional and customizable creation designed for enthusiasts, cosplayers, and collectors. Measuring 4 feet long when fully extended, the sword features an ingenious telescopic or interlocking design that allows it to collapse into a compact form for easy storage and portability.

This sword is crafted to be printed using a single extruder 3D printer without requiring an AMS (Automatic Material Switching) system. Instead, the design utilizes modular components, enabling users to print the blade and handle separately in different colors. The blade sections and handle are designed with snap-fit joints or threaded connections, ensuring a secure assembly while allowing easy customization.

The blade, printed in a durable yet lightweight filament like PLA+ or PETG, can be made in metallic or vibrant shades, mimicking steel or magical energy. The handle incorporates textured grips and intricate details for aesthetics and functionality. Optional add-ons include decorative hilt guards or pommels that can also be swapped for personalization.

Perfect for cosplay, display, or as a creative DIY project, this 3D-printed collapsible sword balances innovation, practicality, and artistic expression.

 

*Assembly Instructions*

-Take all 5 sections of the blade and put them inside the handle.

-Use super glue or another adhesive to glue the Sword Butt to the bottom of the Main Body.

-Make sure the blade sections do not get glued accidentally.

The blade struck and the print failed with 15 minutes remaining, so I had to cancel it. I remedied the situation by thickening the outermost layer with adhesive tape, and the result is quite satisfactory 👍

Turned out great I've made 6 so far and my two yr old had to go and smack it hard against something hard and break the tip so I gotta make a new blade I think I'll use more infil for it see if that helps but he loves his .

glad to hear it. sadly however the design is not meant for contact play and changing the infil will have little to no effect on its strength. just the flaws of 3D printing

That color combo is legendary. I’m gonna have to get some good filament to make my own now.

this is just super cool, not to mention a very smooth print! I opted for silver filament to make the blade portion to give a more realistic look.

This is SO COOL! Only thing is it might be cool if you made the cap so it could screw on and not have to be glued. With that you could also replace the blade incase it breaks or gets damaged. Still a really cool model though! I also like how the blades are thicker and they don’t break after the 5th swing!

Glad to hear it. I’ve tried to look into a method of using a screw on cap but because the blade shape is not circular the cap can’t screw on. basically you have to make a hole that’s big enough for the blade to fit in.

pretty cool print the handle looks great! The blade does tend to get stuck and the bottom of the blade broke pretty quick so the blade can come out on occasion on deployment. But looks great!
