Spike, but for what?

[Felinepeachy]

Okay, what is a spike like this used for?

It's about 11" long and 3/4 inch square.

Nice spike Felinepeachy

Rusty cribbing spikes from along a logging RR grade. A little different shape then Felinepeachys, but are 3/4" square and 12" long and serve the same purpose.

Great spike pic and ID lumbercamp

The nails that were used in the Crucifixion were more like huge spikes. Or should I just retract my statement?...........NGE
