  1. There is an anvil in the Prillwitz Collection are estimated to be from the 1500's Do not know how it is dated. Mod note: LInk removed as per Jock demands
  2. The fronthole is more of a cavity so inside it possible to see that it is made as it is and not bulked up. It has a really "handmade look" so it is not made under a powerhammer not even trued up with a flatter or similar tool. It could be as early as 1600 or much later
  3. B) It belongs to Me and are used for small work on renfairs and demos. The entire face and and upper side of the horn is a patchwork of steel of good quality. The small hardiehole indicates that it is later than viking period but You never know for sure :)
  4. The weight is 28 kilo and are from heel to horn 35 cm (about 14 inch) and 16 cm in height. It was bought in southern sweden about ten years ago.
  5. Have anyone seen something like this?
  6. This is a small vise B) And a blurry pic
  7. My NOHAB are stamped with the weight in the same way as the name are. They used to be cast upside down with a plate of steel in the bottom of the form. /Harry
  8. Then take a look at their prices and be glad that you found it cheaper B)
  9. Have you seen the prices Whitney Roper takes for new Pexto stakes and anvils ?
  10. Type C51 Kohlswa cast steel anvil :)
  11. I have used Power plant coal for a couple of years. It is as good as can be ; low sulphur and almost no slag or clinker.
  12. Thank You in advance Hofi. /Harry (Harri was a result of a misspelling when I registered )
  13. Glenn, do you know the source for this ? Living and working in Sweden, this is new to me. Maybe Hofi have the answer. /Harry
  14. Kohlswa Gjuteri It may be an older anvil or made for export as I never seen such marking on the feet. Kohlswa are marked with kilograms and model-nr.
  15. ANGELE have them both. Also some other, very good hammers.
  16. True ! I only have about 12 of them... Started with a 127kg that was a bit heavy to take to the rennfairs, so I bought a 50kgs. Then I heard that Kohlswa wouldnt continue with their C51 (48kgs) so... :D
