Thanks for the comments and welcome to Iforgeiron. As for an anvil on Oahu, that is a bit tricky. There used to be a discount import tool store on Dillingham that had "decent" starter anvils for around $100, that is where i bought my first one in 2006. If you have the ability to scrounge a bit you may find something useable as an anvil, like my second one which was an old excavator hammer bit used as a post anvil. Some people use rail sections but there are better solutions. Shipping is what will hit hard trying to order an anvil from the mainland. Be creative and realize for bladesmithing you do not "need" a traditional London pattern anvil. Good luck!
