[WIP] BobtheGreat's Knife... Thing

[BobtheGreatII]

Old model... I plan on redoing a lot of it if not all of it... but here's this:

CHANINSAW DAGGER!!! wheres the power supply?

[BobtheGreatII]

2 AA in the handle... dur.

[FRain]

I was going to do a ninja-star knife, but I'll look like a copycat if I did.

[Disaster]

damn, you took my idea, I was in the process of drawing it D:

I'm going to make something more creative.

[Chainsy]

The only problem I see is that since it now is a chainsaw it takes away one of the most lethal things in a dagger, its ability to stab. Chainsaws can easily get caught in thread and other things, and a AA battery will not fuel that beast for long, though I guess it would be like a last ditch defense weapon with like 3 swipes. Also another problem is storage, it can snag things really easily with those little blades.

[Sel]

oh first thing I saw was a face on blade lol.

[thehoodedsmack]

There's a lack of Space Marines attached to the handle...

Looks dope.

[SnaFuBAR]

this is an old model/idea, do something new, because this competition is based on what you can come up with in a week. I have no idea how long you had to conceptualize or model that, so it's no good for my competitions.

[Heathen]

Bad



Ass

But what you seem to fail to understand is, that it will look nothing like this. All I'm gonna use is the chainsaw idea... is that still ok? I refuse to use that model, or any part of it because it looks like crap. So excuse me, but wait until I actually get my different idea up.

[BobtheGreatII]

Ok... well after talking to Snaf, I guess there might be a chance I can stay in this... Anyway, here's the new knife concept of mine:

That's gonna be a knife smaller than a machete? Brutal.

[mech]

Nice watermark, foiled my stealing plan.

Also, what the fuck?

:confused2:

[Corndogman]

Okay so, now it can be used as a regular blade, but when you pull the trigger it spins like a chainsaw?

[Geo]

Looks dangerous. Make sure to include a warning label saying that children under 3 years of age can't use it.

Well... I suppose you can just sort of hack at your enemy's while the blade isn't spinning... :lol:

I was actually considering throwing on a "Keep Limbs And Fingers Away" type of thing on there...

The battery taped on looks like it would be uncomfortable to hold and hard to slip your hand around it quickly in a sticky situation, but other then that, looks good.

[Heathen]

Looks cool.

Irrelevant. It is awesome and that is all that counts.

[BobtheGreatII]

^ha ha thanks.

I would also like to note (after talking to my dad) that the battery is a super futuristic battery. Thus making it capable of spinning a chainsaw blade at high speeds. : /

Parts I think still need work, would include the indent in the blade part... it has silly angles to it, I didn't give it much thought.

Also note that I flipped the blade upside down, I realized the chain would actually be defying physics.

That's all for now.

[ExAm]

[BobtheGreatII]

Well ok, Guess I'll just ask... does it look better the way I had it in the concept art, or how it looks on the model?

K, thats awesome. it would be really cool if there was some sort of cleaning system for the blades as they re-enter the hilt area (unless Idfk how a chainsaw works) so when they come out the other side they're free of all the "stuff" thats left over from whatever it sliced up. The "stuff" could be ejected through those little slits in the hilt. Just imagine the brutal bloody rain spraying out of it. :)

Damn, you might win again...

Also why does the battery have 3 connectors?

[Bastinka]

Looks uncomfortable for the fingers, nice knife/chainsaw though!

So people stop thinking it's a regular battery... cause it's not... lol, super futuristic one.

Edit:

As for it seeming uncomfortable... Should I put the battery hanging off the bottom?

[Advancebo]

Make a slot for the battery, just make it not have a cover

[BobtheGreatII]

But that's not really the look I'm going for... I'm trying to give that grunge kind of... the system that is meant for the motor to run doesn't work anymore... so there's this battery strapped to the side and hard wired in to the motor to power it...

[Chainsy]

Id say on one side take out the vents on the base of the blade and put the battery there.

[ICEE]

I think the reason it looks uncomfortable is because there is so little room for the fingers between the handle and the handgaurd/thing that the battery is attached to.

Groove the handle like:

so the fingers can slip into place easier, keeping the handle from looking like a tennis racket from the dark pit. The battery is fine where it's at, in my opinion. I would work on making it flow better with the handle though.

Looks great man.

[teh lag]

That's something special right there.


Maybe add some sort of a power switch/safety? Would seem like a natural thing to have, at least to me.

[Heathen]

i'm just wondering, conceptually, where is the weight on this badboy? You would want counterweight with this one.

Seriously?

I mean, in all honesty... something like this would be held by a character from GoW or something... This in no way is supposed to look serious.. nor will it ever make sense. lol

[jngrow]

As awesome as it looks, to me it just looks like a handheld chainsaw. It needs something to make it clear that it's a weapon, not a tool.

Then gain, it looks like a weapon to everyone else. :/

[BobtheGreatII]

I dunno, when I see a chainsaw, I think of chopping up zombies... not cutting fire wood. lol

[Geo]

That would make a nice mess when you use it on a zombie, or anyone for that matter. Would the speed of the chain be affected with the trigger, or does it just go full blast all the time?

[BobtheGreatII]

Sure, why the heck not. :lol:
