We've been having a good old time with this over on the Pocket Knife community, but I figure there's probably a lot of crossover with this crowd as well.

I'm sure you've seen various clever little one piece utility knife blade holders on Thingiverse and so forth, and while they're quite functional I don't think they're nearly as overwrought or silly enough, nor require quite enough components.

Rather than repeat my entire post from there over here, I'll leave you with these:

If you’re gonna print a weapon, a balisong is the right choice. You were gonna hurt yourself with it anyway!

Sure, but this is not even remotely my first rodeo with the ol' flippy-spinny-do.

I'm a veritable expert by this point; I ought to put it on my résumé.
