\"iStab\"<\/a>Oh, boy.<\/p>\n

“The iStab is a 3D printed iPhone cover which has a folding knife along one edge, producing a blade whenever you might need one. This phone case is “cutting edge”, and is designed as an exploration in conceptual 3D printed weapons.”
\nThe models I based this idea from are free, and the programs needed edit the 3D files are also free: Netfabb and MeshMixer.”<\/p>\n

“The iStab is a great way to keep a cutting implement on hand at all times. This can be used as a weapon for self-defense for the next time you’re in a knife-fight like Michael Jackson in Beat It, or harmlessly used for everyday actions like opening packaging or cutting items to size. Forget highly-contentious 3D printed firearms and flimsy iPhone knuckle dusters, the iStab has you covered for all your cutting needs.”<\/p>\n

“Blades such as the one shown in this project are considered weapons by law enforcement. This project is provided for educational use only and should not be replicated.”<\/p>\n
