Made this knife today.

It is an old hc railroad spike that the customer commissioned me to use. He is aware that its not the best knife material but it was sentimental.

Made this commission yesterday

I strongly considered not posting this because of how much hate I get working with railroad spikes. I suggested to the customer to use different metal or a 1070 railroad spike but this is what they wanted.
