  Let $L/K$ be a cyclic extension of degree $n = 2m$. It is known that the
space $\text{Alt}_K(L)$ of alternating $K$-bilinear forms (skew-forms) on $L$
decomposes into a direct sum of $K$-subspaces $A^{\sigma^i}$ indexed by the
elements of $\text{Gal}(L/K) = \langle \sigma \rangle$. It is also known that
the components $A^{\sigma^i}$ can have nice constant-rank properties. We
enhance and enrich these constant-rank results and show that the component
$A^\sigma$ often decomposes directly into a sum of constant rank subspaces,
that is, subspaces all of whose non-zero skew-forms have a fixed rank $r$. In
particular, this is always true when $-1 \not \in L^2$. As a result we deduce a
decomposition of $\text{Alt}_K(L)$ into subspaces of constant rank in several
interesting situations. We also establish that a subspace of dimension
$\frac{n}{2}$ all of whose nonzero skew-forms are non-degenerate can always be
found in $A^{\sigma^i}$ where $\sigma^i$ has order divisible by $2$.
