I didn't like how little the margins were for the nuts on the original model, the nuts would always deform the handle whenever I screwed in the blade. I added cubes to block off the original nut holes and added negative cylinders to the original model to retrofit it for m3 4x3 inserts. I think the result functions much better than the original and would be good if you happen to have some heat set inserts. When I inserted the inserts, some filament globbed up and the exit hole, but when I screwed in the bolts the globs popped out fine. I printed mine in Inland ABS-CF.
