  1. Timothy, Thanks for the advice! As a matter of fact, we also have a "learner" anvil. Its a Peter Wright, a little rough at around 150 pounds or so and the one we will use during the hopefully short learning curve. Meanwhile, I'll park the "sports car" in the garage while its value grows. After all, its paid for!
  2. Thanks, all. Sorry for the misspelling (Budden, not Badden). We plan to make some blades as I am a chef and have quite a collection of German and American knives already. My son has been researching how to do so but we can use all the help we can get, so feel free to offer any assistance or advice. By the way, i did buy a lottery ticket today!
  3. My son and I have begun to acquire anvils, tools and are in the process of building a forge. We are planning to try our hands at making some items. Today I bought a Hay Badden anvil at a yard sale with the following serial number: 211592. The surface seems to be exceptionally smooth and square with very little sign of use. Can anyone give me an idea of its age and if I got a good deal. I had to carry it out of a guys basement and he only wanted $10.00 for it. Also any other information regarding this anvil will be greatly appreciated. I've attached some photos as well. Thanks!
