[QUOTE="radioscooter, post: 5317469, member: 223857"] Okay, I'm usually with you as far as "lineage" goes. I'd rather have an accurate "official" anything than not. But that has slowly dissolved with the advent of: [LIST] [*]Really good 3-D printers and makers [*]I know for certain that the WB studio STL files are floating out there in the ether and that some "regular" folks have access to them. [*]The fact that even among the multiple "official" licensed versions with "lineage", the inaccuracies or price-point for the quality you get is disproportionate and hugely disappointing thus far (IMO). [*]If I were going to get a $200+ official version for the "lineage" it should be as close to perfect screen-accuracy as I'd need or desire. If I was going to strip it, repaint it and weather it, damn man, I'd go with the most accurate fan-made version. At that point you're just paying a lot for a metal base-kit. [/LIST] I think most likely only the "straight/hand-held/tactical knife" (whatever we're calling that one) is double-sided. The curved one for the chest-piece is flat on the back (speculating here). That said - I've picked up seven different 3-D printed ones and am finishing some for a shoot-out/review. Some are "meh". Some are outstanding. And one is spot-on based on Rut Villamagna's tutorials.. At least one set I picked up is "shallow" enough that you could just get two and glue them together for a double-sided version (tactical, straight, no curve) with very little effort and clean-up.
