Medieval sword
Total length 1.15 metre (45,27 inch).
Components (10);
Printed parts (5)
o Blade-1
o Blade-2

Standard components (5)
o 4 Wooden dowels 8mm x 35mm
o PVC pipe diameter 32mm length 240mm
The 4 dowels are used to connect the 3 blade pieces together (you could choose print components instead of using the wooden dowels). The dowels actually worked out great, they made for an excellent connection between the 3 blade pieces.
Pvc pipe will function as grip (you can choose the length of the pvc pipe as you like I went for a length of 240mm).
