3D Printed Rope Cutter

I bought 1000 feet of parachute cord and wanted a built in cutter where I mounted it. So I designed a quick tool in TinkerCad. I had two blade to choose from to use, a standard box cutting blade and a flat scraping blade. Turns out they are close in size so I just made it so you could use wither blade.

Here's a Thingiverse link to it.









Two screws to mount and it's done. Just pull the rope through, wrap it around the bottom prong and guide it in to the blade slot. This allows you to put tension on the line and cut it with a quick swipe or two.
