Folding knife with blade lock

cults3d

The knives usually consist of a rocker and a spring to lock the blade in the open position. Printing a PLA spring does not give very positive results, so I created this knife model using the flip-flop as a blade "lock". Just press on the rounded part of the handle to unlock and fold the knife (the play between the handle and the pin is reduced for a good holding without glue, you'll have to force a little to clip in! )sand very lightly if necessary... Easily printable in only 4 pieces and all in PLA. Simply clip the 2 parts of the handle after positioning the blade and tilting it. (see photo). If you have to disassemble the knife, pry gently around the handle so as not to break the lugs. To open your mail, for example, or for decoration !
