A harrow spring tine having a tine shaft that carries a distinct, separately formed cutting edge member body, formed of a hardened material such as tungsten carbide and/or a material having a longer wear life relative to material of the tine shaft and brazed directly to the tine shaft, to provide optimum durability and wear resistance on an area of the tine shaft extending a short distance upward from the bottom end of the tine shaft, where the most ground contact will occur during use of the tine.
