I completely redimensioned and smoothed the pins and connectors and experimented with engraving. I will include the Autodek Inventor files so that you can update the text to your liking. This is a great experimentation with clips, after printing I think you will see the benifits of each type of clip or pin that was used... to help in planning future assemblies.

notes: printed at scale 2 to accompany child size hands, as this was made to be a child's toy to help teach knife safety. Could be printed at scale 1 to be a key chain or scale 3 to fit an adult hand. My first attempt did not allow the blade to stop when completely closed, so the left side of handle has been updated to fix that problem. The blade has been updated also as 1.0mm text font size did not print well at scale 2, so text size was increased to about 2mm, which prints nicely at scale 2.
