new toy, will clean tomaro with a brush on a angle grinder, cant find a name on it yet, looks alot like a peter wright to me, the shape, and the little clifts on the feet, but not sure if it is. also not positive if its cast of forged, cant find any forging marks, but not really any cast marks eather. ill do a little spark test tomaro near the broken area to see if its wrought with a steel face or all cast steel, its a monster to me, was told it was 470, looks to be right, probaly was 500 but after the heel was broken at the hardy 30 was lost. 16in tall, 6in wide face. sure beats the pants off my old 140lb
Do i need a 470lb anvil, no but i sure am happy i found one after lookin for a few years
Maybe ill weld a new heel back on one day... maybe
tell me who you think the maker is?
