Default Habermann anvil

What is special about the habermann? I have just been looking at a price list and the habermann is appreciably more expensive than other anvils of similar mass.

The only thing that I like about it more than others is the side shelf. It gets thinner towards the end than other brands. I liked it because I feel it would be convenient for making smaller forks.

Outside of that I don't see any superior design, etc. I don't get why his tongs are so thin either, seems like they would deform. I'm sure there's a reason i'm unaware of
