Must he alot of hammerin from a coil to this thin shovel
You could take some of that spring, upset the ends a bit bigger, drift an eye into it, and make a set of smaller hammers?Not a small amount, but it would be a LOT less for an experienced forger!
I often make trouble for myself by trying to be too efficient with materials. A tiny 1.5" long bit of spring is really hard to hold onto with tongs while also hammering with a 2.5lb smacker.

No progress on the cable, been concentrating on this instead.
BK16 for scale.
