I Forge Iron

Recommended Posts

Bought a Hill anvil 130 pounds, good ring, although it varies from place to place on the surface, and the rebound is good. I only paid 40.00 for it and think I got a steal on a 150+ year old with very few defects. Any comment on the quality of the name or the anvil? The weight code was 1 0 18.

dollars, pounds or yen?

tap it lightly all over the face and mark the areas with chalk where it sounds different then post a picture, if it sounds hollow you may have delamination, if it just on the heel it changes it is due to the thickness of metal being less than in the middle.
