90 spikes in the box.

5,000 ÷ 90 = 55.5555555556

$55.55 each :shock: ::facepalm::

I think there is a surge in this country to revisit old vintage stuff made in the USA. It has caught hold and people are getting to price their goods to take advantage.
Instead of a Gold Rush it is a Vintage Rush.

If those sell at that price, there's not a railroad track in the country that'll be safe from spike pirates. ::paranoid::

Imagine all the "lunch box" spikes ::uc:: I personally don't care for the knives they beat these things into. ::barf::

The trick is to find the knife that is in each one of those spikes. He acts like he's already done that.

Phil, There are several tracks close to my house. What are you doing next weekend? ::woot::

My first thought was that there are tracks close to my house...

I'm with Phil and Wayne on this one.
I'll go with. Just let me know when ya'll decide to go!

These are HIGH CARBON steel RR spikes, they are perfect for making custom knives!! Custom knives sell from $100-$200 each, this is a LOT of 90!! This is a GREAT investment for ANY custom knife maker!!! here in the pictures i show you what some of the knives can look like- **the knives are not included** If any questions please feel free to contact me.Seller Notes: “mild to heavy rust”
Yeah, I have several questions ::nod::

He claims that he sold them for $4925. Dang; I was just a little too late! Those knives sorta remind of some Loveless knives I have seen. ::uc:: ::barf::
