I do like it bubby. Kinda giving me the itch to try making one myself. I'm thinking you  anealed file to work on it and then hardened in the later stages? I really do take so much really high quality steel to the scrap yard every year. It'd be great to make something out some of it.

This one is stock reduction, annealed, shaped, normalized three times and heat treated with a three second quench in warm water then straight into oil. Tempered in my toaster over.
Thanks Eddie
