generally, railroad spikes are not knife-quality steel.

they are low-carbon (even the "high-carbon" ones are specified by law to be a maximum of 0.3% carbon). They're specifically made as such so they fail by deformation bending, not breaking.

I dont know any data on japanese ones - IF japan even uses RR spikes - they might, like the UK, use a knuckle fixing. , but I expect they are the same, low carbon steels for the same application.

Kek. Sub soecies of faggot.

I got friends near tokyo i think. Will get it mailed and just charge u shipping if they can find 1. Also, rr spike knives are cool but dont hold an exge for fuck all from what i hear. But u can forge weld another certain steel into it and make a descebt knife. Good luck man. Will get hild if friends and hit u up if they still there.
