EOD Digging Knife

thingiverse

Wanted to put a 3D printed digging knife/tool through its paces and see how well it holds up in action. I highly recommend printing this design at 100% density for the kind of heavy use it's intended to get. UPDATE: After subjecting the knife to some extreme testing, I made a few modifications to give it even more durability. It's now thicker overall, with a longer blade and a modified edge that's better suited for rough handling. The butt end has been reshaped for improved balance, and a stylish Master Badge has been added as a finishing touch. Happy digging! UPDATE 2 (download V4): - I enlarged the star in the bomb to make it stand out more clearly when printed, rather than looking like a tiny dot. - I added depth to the crab design, so it's now 1mm deep instead of 0.5mm deep for a more detailed look. - I thickened the upper wreath so it looks like a proper wreath and not two squiggly curves. UPDATE 3: - I uploaded the IGES, STEP, and F3D files to give users direct access to the 3D surfaces if they want to remix or customize the design.
