Filament Cutter for Sherpa and Sherpa-patterned Extruders

A remix of JB3D's design that eliminates 3 parts, exchanges a single 5mm('ish, you can use anything from a pen to a 7mm diameter) spring for the two springs of the previous design, and uses a standard exacto #11 blade instead of a 9.2mm wide box cutter blade.  

I use this with a tradrack MMU to avoid tip shaping.  You need to design a block that fits to the left side (as you're looking at it) gantry or frame somewhere for the toolhead to push against.

I've been using this cutter for thousands of cuts and the blade is still going strong, as it cuts on a bias.
