Folding Knife Letter Opener (easier print)

Yet another model that paid a visit to the model doctor… This is a remix of budgiesarecool (https://www.thingiverse.com/budgiesarecool)'s letter opener in the shape of a pocket knife, with the following minor improvements to make it easier to print: * Finally the correct scale (why everyone kept the wrong scale in their remixes, beats me…) * Manifold models (thanks to MasonIsLegit (https://www.thingiverse.com/MasonIsLegit)) * Everything is positioned in the best orientation for printing. * The pin and hole are 4 mm diameter. This makes it easier to ream the hole with a 4 mm drill if needed. * Two variations on the pin, one narrower and one fatter, such that you can pick the one that fits best (tip: print all 3 of them at the same time, this will avoid that the filament melts into a messy blob). * A variation on the handle that has a less steep overhang, this makes it easier to print without needing either supports or a lot of cooling. * Slightly tighter tolerances, to make it less sloppy. * I have also provided an alternative blade with a serrated edge, which may be better suited to cut through thicker paper. And to the person who keeps asking this question: yes, it will probably cut thru cardboard if you print it with sufficiently hard filament! :P
