Boba Fett Survival Knife

thingiverse

UPDATE3: Fresh New Picture Added! Managed to finally give my survival knife a paint job that's almost too realistic, it's probably one of the best ones I've done so far. You might notice some Arubesh engraved into the side of the knife - it's simply the name of the person who owns it since it's being used as a prop. If you can figure out what this character's name is, feel free to comment! She'll be making appearances in my future designs. UPDATE4: Added a Longer and More Accurate Model! Keeping the old one around because it works well as a child's costume accessory or for a desk if you don't want a huge model. A survival knife was a compact handheld bladed weapon that also served as a versatile survival tool. The handle featured a hollow design, allowing for the storage of tiny items used for survival like a fire rod, a short length of wire, or an energy cell. It also boasted a built-in digital compass. Survival knives were used by explorers and issued to military pilots in case they were shot down and survived their vehicle's destruction, needing to survive in a hostile environment. Like the combat knife, the survival knife was crafted for effective use as a thrown weapon.[1] The bounty hunter Boba Fett wielded a survival knife. -Wookieepedia http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Survival_knife This replica may not have a built-in compass, but it can hold a power cell and wire, making it a useful "Phone Charger" as shown. It's also sharp enough to cut through foam! I recently discovered while researching SWG props that the Survival Knife familiar to many players in the game is actually one of Boba Fett's utility items stored in his shin pockets. Who knew? With this new information and realizing there are no prints available online, here's your own Survival knife, Boba Fett Cos-players! Or if you just play SWGEmu and think it'd be fun to make.
