I don't know ,if the guy's grandfather used it maybe 30/40 years. Under my anvil i've found 3 numbers: -79 (perhaps 1979) -7 (serial Number) -8 version of the anvil. I'm not sure.

I've done it already, but no information on FEP ,just name size and price, fep 3 the smaller version, fep 5 77 pounds, fep 8 110pound, fep 11 176 pound, fep 13 ???. The strsnge thing is that this manufacturer have seem to be disappeared, no one know a thing about them ,no documents online , this his pretty sad , the only thing they left is anvils.

small knifes ,tongs,bottle openers, keychains and so on.(mainly small items) About the anvil i' m pretty sure it should be italian, i have found online a few other fep anvils here in italy and if i am not wrong the guy in the other topic said he found it in italy. Thank you both for the answers.

This is a 110 pund Italian (i think cast steel) anvil that a machinist gave me for free, he said that his grandfather used it to forge anchor destinated to small ships. I found out in some italian forums that fep was a premium quality italian manufacturer, but i can't find a single information about FEP , nobody else remember them. The 8 number represent the 110 pound/50 kilo version. I also found under the anvil what appears to be a serial number or mybe year of production ,i don't know. This anvil is hard as a rock,ball baring bounce almost 100% and the ring is so loud that it hurts my hears, edges are fine,but the surface is pretty beat up. I was asking about all the chisel or butcher marks that the body ofthis anvil is covered of. Sorry for bad English as you can tell i'm italian.

Do anyone know what are these signs on my anvil
