    Post a pic of your favorite spike shape! This is open to your most honed ken which might not have a lot of life left in it, but it slays; fresh sharp spikes; bullet tips; glued or raw; customs. Give an explanation as to why your heart melts when you look at it.

    I'm showing my Sweets F3 played down for a bit. I rounded the tip to "bullet" and glued it to hold. This shape feels solid and catches the tama hole nicely. The round shape creates less dimples around my tama hole from missed spikes.

    Which is your favorite?

    slightly dulled and glued for me. I don't like super super sharp spikes, but I also don't like super dull ones. Middle ground is perfect

    I like either the bullet tips or a flat tip like CWCS.
