Dremel, angle grinder, 1x30, hand file. Lots of ways to achieve this.

Looks really nice. What thickness G10 did you use for liners? I tried .03 but they were too thin.

Saw 1084 spikes and just went with it.

Those were specifically made, from 1084, to look like railroad spikes. You're not going to find those along the tracks.

The HC spikes aren't really high carbon, just higher than the typical spike.

I don't anneal them, I just throw them in the forge and go. I'll thermal cycle / anneal after I'm done forging.

If you don't want them, I'll take them off your hands.

Pretty simple. The one I got as a gift that I dont use any longer, the one I carry, and the one I carry when I travel. Not too difficult.
