YouTube Description:

Watch me as I turn an ordinary railroad spike into a precision cutting instrument using just a few simple tools.The song is called "Clearing A" and it can be found at freeplaymusic dot com.

Does railroad steel hold an edge well?


Nope But, if you're only cutting carrots (badly) then this doesn't really matter!

They're a nice object once finished, and would be an interesting thing to have around. I like them, although not as much as he seems to at 3:37 o_O

*metal I was always interested in blacksmithing always looked like a fun hobby I had no idea you could do quality work with a BBQ pit and couple grinders though. Now I'm getting ideas heh.

Respect the skills, but it's a little terrifying to watch him banging away at a metal object with another metal object that's red hot and shedding scale---without any safety glasses.
See the aftermath of that once when bad things happened.
Not pretty.
