Knife blade made from a File

[Scout]

Detected this Old File made knife blade see the file lines, in a 1800's ghost town site in So Cal near an area full of square nails it must have been a blacksmith set up in that spot near a creek I have a coffee can full of square nails of all sizes, old miners candle holder found there also I donated to a Assay museum. Going back with my new MX Sport in a few weeks and hit it with my Brother again.

Sounds like a spot with some good potential.
Congrats on the blade.
