Hidden Blade - Assassin's Creed inspired

$Hidden Blade - Assassin\$

Hey there I've been working on a this project on and off this summer. (mostly this fall)

As you can see it's A hidden blade, I started with a ,desk drawr slide ,some sheet metal (For the blade and part of the trigger mech) ,a few nuts and bolts ,and some thick steel wire. also a paper clip or 2 bent into some small springs.

I'll be building 1-2 more after i finnish this one i'll be making an instructable for those. This one's kinda the test dummy.

What if you had your hand in the wrong place and you accidentally cut your wrist...

Then I'd have a cut wrist. Asif it'll ever happen. Cause if you look... the metal covers my wrist.

Not really... nothing eve locks the blade forward at this point it's fun to pretend to stab yourself case the blade retracts right in.

That's a cool workup! But, well, could you please put something under the blade to protect the palm of your hand? If the blade came out and impaled your palm (just proximal to the base of your middle finger), you'll sever the watershed area where the radial artery and ulnar artery connect. Hate to see someone bleedout while still in the R&D phase;)

All joking aside, very dangerous! I had a patient die a couple years back from a laceration in this particular area- rare, but it does happen.

so far half of the tools I've used to make this are 2 times more dangerous than the knife itself.

It's fine it's not spring activated it's only gravity and the blade cannot come out unless my hand is clearly out of the way (by like 5 inches). I'm really not worried about stabbing myself in the slightest, at this point.
