Zesty Blood

thingiverse

This is "Zesty Blood," a cursed/magical dagger from a Sentinels of the Multiverse role-playing game session (Sentinels of the Multiverse is copyright Greater Than Games, and Zesty Blood itself was created by Maggie Clayton). Since the dagger is described as 'always dripping blood,' I've designed a version that features a small reservoir to hold some liquid inside the handle. This includes several small holes where the hilt meets the blade (the channels on the blade are enough to direct the flow of 'blood' along the edge of the blade). Make sure your support settings are adjusted so the internal reservoir doesn't fill up with supports (it should be very minor bridging across the reservoir, most printers can handle it). If the holes aren't big enough to let the 'blood' out (which depends on what size you print this at as well as how thick you decide to make your fake blood, the included holes are designed for full-scale and water with red food coloring), just drill them out a bit bigger until the liquid can slowly drip out. Please don't use real blood.
