3D PRINTING SETTINGS :

Personally I would 3d print the model with ABS, 0.1mm layer height and 30-40% infill.

Supports are not crucial but recommended.

Total length of the dagger according to the movies is 23 inches.

But you can print it in whatever size you are comfortable with.

For ease of use all parts are packed into one STL file and it is recommended that they get printed the way they are oriented.

-Handle Guard is split into two parts and they should be glued together afterwards either with acetone or superglue.

-The blade itself is split into two parts and they should be printed separately and then assembled with the help of the middle piece provided (the rectangular cube).

-The handle itself is printed in whole and then glued to the handle guard (it fits in the hole of the handle guard).

-The tail piece is split so that it can be printed without supports. The parts should be glued together after printing and then glued to the handle.

*Note: I highly recommend to polish the parts with acetone either before or after assembling. You can search YouTube for videos on how to acetone polish ABS parts.
