Just another note in passing: there is, and always has been, a difference between Euroanvils and Old World Anvils. I have no experience with Old World, but I have seen them confused on more than one occasion.

Mike, Did you order the Refflinghaus from Dick Niefeld at Shady Grove Forge? and if you don't mind me asking, which model did you order?
Dief, Thanks for the Rathole link. I really had no idea how many choices there were when it came to choosing a anvil.

So how big are the boys at rat hole? I see they call the 250 pounder "portable". Well more portable to be precise.
