Dagger
Description
A friend needed a Dagger (actually 4 of them) for cosplay at an upcoming anime convention.
This is my first dagger, so I'm not sure the best way to go about printing such a thing. He seemed pleased with the result though, so that's what counts..

Instructions
Print. For more realism, it will probably need smoothed and painted. Maybe even print two and join them back to back?

Back to back makes good sense. Nice work! Scaled down these would make good looking throwing knives. For cosplay of course.

For shapes with low angle curves like that, either print it in the other direction (which would make it a little weaker) or use more shells and a lower layer height
Thanks for the input! I was paranoid of Z-wobble or the print not sticking well.. I will give it a go next time though..
