Lego Hidden Blade (like the one from Assassin's Creed)

 by Exscaly
I have a power point on a hidden blade i made from lego. It goes step by step. Its pretty simple, but watch out. Everytime u load it, make sure u push the blade into the holder, or u may get a hidden blade launcher!!

Thank you, most of the YouTube videos containing a tutorial on how to make what is shown above are mostly tutorials that have... Uncommon Lego pieces. When I constructed it, I kinda found it a bit small for my hand ( Gods Hand jokes ) so obviously I made it alot fatter and instead of a rubber band. I used a lace material and made it have a flex motion when ejecting the blade out.

Great Tutorial, thanks and keep it up!

Cheers,

how does it lock in place i dont get it and how does it eject also can you just explain to me how it workks too

See the 0 degree connector at the back of the device (at the bottom of the picture)? It connects to the axle that goes down the middle. At the point in which the axle meets the connector, there is a little bit of lego sticking out. This catches on to the plate. To eject it, the connector is pressed down, releasing it from the plate. I'll see if I can make a vid on it. It's hard to describe. :D

How to you lock it in place ready to be thrusted out?
Exscaly (author) in reply to fformentoAug 5, 2011. 2:18 AM
Good question. The rubber band is positioned so that it pushes the shaft forward and a little up. The 0degree connector has a small ledge which catches on the 4x1 plate going across (like in the pic).

it's a pretty good idea but you need to make it longer and retractable so you can move the pen in and out

dude
for one, it isnt even a blade, its a friggin pen
and for two, its not connected to your wrist
i wish i could find a good but cheap switch blade build
but i do give you credit for being cheap and creative
and dont think of me as a mean person for critisizing your build, im just expressing my opinion

how does the blade point out? i'v done all of it.
but the blade doesn't come out? why not.
Exscaly (author) in reply to mrafterMar 17, 2011. 3:25 AM
That's strange. Try tightening pieces and jiggling things around. Sorry I have no direct solution :(

I couldn't make one.But how can i do that?
Exscaly (author) in reply to CAT0916Mar 6, 2011. 8:47 AM
I'm sorry. What do you mean? What do you want to do?

i made my own lego hidden blade and it's mechanism uses a spring and i locks in and out after just pushing a button
Exscaly (author) in reply to killersir751Feb 10, 2011. 3:16 AM
That's an idea to try the next time! Thanks.
killersir751 in reply to ExscalyFeb 10, 2011. 1:44 PM
yh, but the i built, works perfectly, perfect size, but too many pieces and different sizes (4) of springs (can all be found inside the P.185A BB gun).

could you explain the purpose of the cross plate on the back?
Exscaly (author) in reply to ezio819Jan 9, 2011. 9:11 PM
The crossplate at the back prevents the entire contraption from exploding, as it is under a fair amount of force from the rubber band.

Thanks.

how do you secure that to the wrist ?
Exscaly (author) in reply to ghito1998Jan 4, 2011. 8:14 PM
Sorry I didn't mention it. Use rubber bands, or sweat bands or anything that can go on your wrist fairly tightly.
