What is it called? Part beveled rod? Part double beveled rod?

It's the inner part of a cordless drill spindle, the part that slides
into the gearbox. The shiny area is ordinary round rod. The dark area is
beveled on both sides.

Details...

9.0 mm, diameter of the shiny round rod part.
8.8 mm, where the beveling starts, the diameter of the round rod is
decreased.
6.8 mm, from one beveled side to the other. It's beveled 1 mm on each side.

I might use it, but there's not much to work with.

Thanks.

Its called 5 minutes on a tool and cutter grinder or a couple attempts
on a belt sander

Or 15 minutes with a vise and a file or two?
