Thanks for all the input everyone. I live in the Pacific Northwest in Southern Oregon. I think I'll offer 100 for it, and walk away if he won't take it. It will be my first anvil, so it'll be a learning one for me until I can afford a new one, and have gotten some work under my belt. I'm thinking of taking a class from the guy who sells those Rhino anvils and seeing what they are all about since they are so much cheaper. He teaches his classes on them so I'll get a first hand test on one. Thanks again -Robert

Hi all, I'm new to this site and new to the world of smithing and have really found a lot of good info here. I found an anvil locally and figured I'd post it here and get an opinion on it. The guy who has it wants 175.00 and says its around 100 lbs. He's not too clued in on it I think. He claimed it was a Sloan Farriers anvil before he sent me the pics. Any advice would be great. Thanks! -Robert
