Another RR spike knife

This one was fun to forge, although I would have liked to make the blade 5" longer... the customer requested a 4" blade. This signifies the end of my commissions - I just started a full-time job, so I will only be making blades I want to make. FREEDOM!

So am I to assume that the piece in the middle is spring steel or something comparable to give a decent edge to the blade?

Nice job!
There was a little friendly competition in the Seattle area a while back for spike knives.
Dave Lisch won it- he forge a railroad spike from Damascus and then forged THAT into a knife :)
