Princess Mononoke - San's Dagger

thingiverse

This is the San's dagger from the movie, "Princess Mononoke". I modified the dagger files from cyancdesign's "Kunai - Full sized, anime style" to be slightly larger. And I made a new handle for it using TinkerCad, because San's dagger doesn't have the ring of a regular kunai. However, the handle does not have the peg holes of the original. It is a solid piece of ABS for a little bit of heft. I simply glued it onto the rest of the dagger. The final measurements are about approximately 12" long and 3" wide (at the widest point). The first picture shows it on a board of 1x1 inch squares. Instructions I printed out the dagger in ABS using a MakerBot 2X Replicator. I used an ABS/acetone mixture to glue all of the pieces together instead of using the recommended 3mm bits of ABS of the original design. It was then a matter of sanding down, priming, and painting the final piece.
