The Casper is a fully 3D-printable balisong (butterfly knife) trainer, designed for smooth and safe flipping. As part of the new Mc'Coon - Ringtail Series, this model features an original design with hidden stop pins and a simple press-fit assembly, requiring no screws or metal parts.
Features:
- Safe, trainer-style design with no sharp edges
- Fully 3D-printed with press-fit pivot system
- Designed for easy printing with minimal supports
- 60g weight, printed at 100% infill for better balance
- Optimized for PLA Matte, but also works well with other materials
Assembly Instructions:
- Remove all supports from the printed parts, ensuring that no support material remains in the pinholes.
- Check the pins to make sure they are completely clean of any leftover support material.
- Insert one pin into a handle, then lay it flat on a table.
- Place the blade into the handle and press down firmly on the table until it snaps into place.
- Insert the second pin the same way, pressing it in until secure.
- Repeat the same process for the other handle.
The Casper is the first model in the Mc'Coon - Ringtail Series, a line of high-quality, 3D-printable balisong trainers. More designs will follow as I continue developing this series.
Note: This is an independent design created for personal use and experimentation. Print and use responsibly.
