If you're looking to add a little extra character to your models, then look no further than the edge slide tool in Blender! This powerful little feature can be used to create all sorts of interesting effects, from beveled edges to softened corners.

To use the edge slide tool, simply select the edge or edges you want to modify and press G followed by X, Y, or Z. This will constrain the edge slide to the corresponding axis. Then, simply move your mouse to slide the edge along that axis. To exit the edge slide tool, press Esc or right-click.

One of the great things about the edge slide tool is that it can be used to create hard or soft edges. For hard edges, simply press Shift+G to constrain the edge slide to a straight line. For soft edges, press Alt+G to constrain the edge slide to a curved line.

So, whether you're looking to add a little extra detail to your models or just want to experiment with some new techniques, be sure to check out the edge slide tool in Blender!
