Where do you guys find the age on the anvil? Is there a book I should buy, or is there a formula for figuring from the serial number. I have a Trenton that has 175 on the left front and 18674 on the right, could someone tell me how old it is?

How about "Redneck Piece of White Trash" by Rebel Son. Great song, true story.

I live in Ohio but was born and raised in the hills of West Virginia. I have always had an interest in doing things the old fashion way and after starting into to building flintlock rifles I figured I should be making all of the parts that I can for the rifles I build, so here I am.

I make mine with a draw knife and rasp. Osage are the pretty ones for show but they snap like glass when you throw.

On the bottom under the horn left side it says 157 then the right looks like 1867 then possibly a 4.
