@Sheilajeanne and @fredk 

When I  put them on my stall, there's a 'not for sale  strictly  for display ' sign   attached  as  they bring  people into  my stall, peeps take  a lot of pics of  them. I' ll try to up load  another pic ,but the spikes along the back of the boots are around  3" long x just under an inch in thickness.  The rest are around 1" to 2 " in  length , some around 3/4 " . 

The hardest part was fitting  the spikes on the toes, as getting my hands , being a bit arthritic , into a small space.

I quite like them . 

I do have some spikes left over, I'm sure I can find a creative  use for them 

try googling ' goth boots with spikes' , and omg, some designs  are so wild and whacky. One design had a knife blade as the heel of the boot.

So i came up with a design  of my own.  Love to do more

@Handstitched how about wrist bracers with the leftovers, or this;

Thats a 'leather' type covering held on by elastic or something. The 'spikes' or 'teeth' are curved to meet our police regulations, but I reckon you could do something similar with the pointy spikes. Also, if you use an old non-reusable helmet you could just drill though it to fit the spikes
