M.Knife Remix for 61mm blades
Description
Massive update. So, internally the main body was a mess, it did and didn't catch right so lock up was not very guaranteed all the time, but it is now. I went through and changed the angles of the channels for lock up and retraction, it is very easy to get it to lock properly now. I changed the spring as well making it more... well, spriningy... It compresses and maintains better tension for tighter lockup. The main body was widened by .5mm for strength, I noticed a little too much play when using the knife when cutting. The only thing now that has not been changed or edited yet is the ring. So if you are coming from a old version you can keep the ring and use it without reprinting, however, I do recommend changing over to the new models I uploaded. it makes this much better. In the last update, I fixed the durability with the blade housing. Again happy printing! *********************************************************************************************** Update again.... After playing around with removing the blade a lot I found that the arm broke more easily, so I moved the flex joint forward and added another joint to help with durability and flexibility. Also, I have a clip designed and a new main body that I am testing it on first, when and if i can get a good print out of it I will up load them both. *********************************************************************************************** Update. I uploaded three new models, two are for screws, the new body is for a screw size of 0-80 .156 the second is for 1-72 .155, these screws are not metric. The new top cover can accommodate both screw sizes. If you cannot find them this is where i get them in the US, https://www.knifekits.com/vcom/torx-socket-head-156-25ct-p-2196.html https://www.knifekits.com/vcom/torx-socket-head-155-25ct-p-5754.html Sorry I did not include this in the first place, but I did not want to change too much of the original model and I wanted to make it so you could make this without screws. ************************************************************************************************* As requested by a comment and myself, I made changes to the internal blade housing to accommodate standard 61mm blades. I increased the overall length of the model by 1.75 mm (I had no choice if i wanted the blade to fit). The only components that were not changed were the spring and the ring. I also made the main housing a little larger for fitting issues, so no sanding should be required now. The next part I am working on is a pocket clip, i will update when I figure it out.
