Nice work Craig. That looks great.

Awesome idea and nice execution. Ive seen em made into bottle openers as well

Looking good Craig!

Here is one of the ones I just made, Birddog and are doing a few different ones for Albion.
If I can get a bunch done I will have some for GS8.

Question-

I would think that railroad spikes are not the highest quality steel, and I'm curious to know whether a good edge can be produced with that material. I pose this as a question, because I have no idea.

I thought you had to fight off some poor meth head farmers while fishing by Watt bridge.

damn that was funny!

Hope Craig is gonna get to carve up some crappie meat with that blade.

Old steel = good steel? Just my 2 cents. Great question

Nice work fellas! Here's one my best friend Dennis made me for pig hunting. He's been doing it for about a year and is getting really good I think. He uses old saw blades I believe. Told him to hook me up with a few to unload at a hookup sometime.

Yeah, that just made me have to do some Google research this morning.  And yes, you're right!

Also, remember we we're talking tomahawks last night?

Craig & Sonny, you guys have mad skills.

Why is railroad spike steel not good knife steel?

Too soft to hold an edge?
