That's cool! Better add handles on the ends - that's a heavy sucker.
I'd like to find a piece like that - you have a better garage than I do
BG.

I don't have a torch big enough to heat treat that monster, so
will just re-grind as necessary.


And if you only use a soft mallet (wood, plastic, leather), you'll never
have to re-grind.
