On his facebook page he says " The bronze colors from tempering"

I made these for digging Ramps but could also be used for shucking oysters.

Ramp season is almost here I'm ready for some fresh ones.

Railroad spikes are cheap and fun to practice skills with.

Very good looking knife design JRigoni.... I'm going to have to make one like that for sure.

Thanks for the replies.

I will try the chain and magnet to try and quiet it down some.

The wife suffers from migraines sometimes the noise gets me in trouble. 

Using a 1/2 ball bearing I dropped it from 10" and got a rebound of 9 5/8" in the center of the anvil.

And 1" from the hardy hole I got a 9 1/4" rebound and 1" from the horn I got a 9 1/2" rebound.

This anvil rings very loud I have 1/4" thick x 2" wide Neoprene strips between the anvil and the stand but it's still loud.

I found a 200 lb. Fisher the other day for 300.00 bucks I'm thinking about buying it because their said to be a lot quieter.

Hi All,

I have been hanging around the site for awhile picking up a lot of good info and tips.

I have seen a lot of different anvils on here but none like mine. Anyone have any info on these brand anvils.

I have been using it for a couple of years and it seems OK to me. But I must admit it's the only anvil I've ever used.
