Custom Railroad Spike & Railroad Screw knives
Dark Angels Tactical creates unique, handcrafted railroad spike and railroad screw knives for hunting, survival, EDC, kitchen, combat, or display pieces, individually made to your specifications. Each piece combines the character of reclaimed railroad hardware with a custom-finished, one-of-a-kind design.
We also maintain a selection of pieces that have already been made for customers who prefer a faster turnaround. The pieces shown in the photographs are displayed without handles because the customization process allows you to select your preferred handle material, colors, and finish.
Customization Options
We do our best to accommodate custom colors, designs, fits, and finishes. Depending on your selection, we can create a variety of appearances, including:
Wood handles
Wood and epoxy combinations
Epoxy handles
Custom colors and multi-color combinations
Treated or all-metal finishes
Hammered or unfinished appearance on the non-edge portions
Polished or mirror-style finishes
Bluing and other requested finishes
For railroad screw pieces, we can also smooth the ridges and edges of the screw portion to create a more comfortable display/handling surface.
Every piece begins with a base configuration, with wood, wood/epoxy, or epoxy options available depending on the design.

Because each item is individually handcrafted, no two pieces will be exactly alike. Variations in railroad hardware, metal texture, coloration, grain, epoxy patterns, and finishing are part of the character of a handmade piece.

Please review all customization selections carefully before production begins. We are happy to discuss your design ideas and work with you to create a unique railroad-themed display piece.
