I remember those times when zippos were considered valuable in Israel back in the 80's early 90's

everything is possible, I will ask my friend for more information

Israel pre 1948 was governed by Great Britain, there were no American facilities as far as I know,
my guess is that either someone brought it with him from America or it was purchased from a navy sailor from one of the ships that use to pass through our harbours at one time.

Haha, my friend is from Haifa region actually, maybe he got it from a navy sailor passing by.
And thanks for the date rustyanchor appreciate it, 1941-1943 WWII time anvil, that maybe explains the rough welding on the waists,
I read somewhere that in war time they did not waste too much time on the finish

Thanks Irondragon, was not aware of it just updated my location.
I got this anvil as a present from a friend today he did not say where he got it from.

I am actually looking for a bigger anvil than 170 cause theres a lot of agricultural machinery scrap lying around in my area that I can reforge, some of it is big and needs to be hammered on pretty hard.
I dont think anvils are so common here, good new ones are extremely expensive, for example a German drop forged Ridgid Peddinghause 75kg (165lb) will cost you around $3500, that is about 2 times the cost in the US from my researches.
