This is a remix of the lovely “Ebony Dagger (Skyrim)” model by Shadowcraft. Thanks, Shadowcraft!

I have made the following changes to the original:

Scaled up the dagger so that overall length is now about 40 cm.

Trimmed the base of the blade and made a hole for it in the handle so it’s a bit sturdier and easier to assemble.

Made holes in the tip of the blade so that it fits on the pegs on the blade base.
The finished print shown in the pictures had some supports fail on the handle, and I also had trouble getting the very tip of the blade to print. Both of these issues were with my printer and not the model.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!
