Here is a knife I made out of a railroad spike.
The process is a multistep process, first cutting a line in and then twisting the handle portion. then forging the blade. The blade is kept soft so that then using files the blade is shaped then the blade is hardened and then heated again to take the tension in the metal out again. then a final sharpening on the edge is done.
I present 2 pictures so the lighting does not hide the details.
