Speaking of Ducks in a row, keep you eye on when the next meeting of the New Mexico Artist Blacksmith Association is; you might be able to clear out some stuff there!
Thank you! I will look out for that.
Cheers!

You will have no problem selling your tools, the price factor is the only unknown. I noticed a small drop in prices in general comparing to a few years ago.
i think the heat has come off the market as people start selling. I hope you get good money for them anyway.
Thank you!
Id love to keep them for when I retire, but I haven't used them in a couple years, and got some rental property I want to work towards paying off.
I have contacted another blacksmith here in ABQ and a friend of mine makes swords, so hopefully between them I can get some reasonable price.
Thank you guys for your quick responses!
now I just need to get all my ducks in a row for what I am selling

Hello All,
I got into blacksmithing about 6 years ago, I have found that I haven't had the time to really do it. so Im working on selling my stuff.
I don't know how to identify the Anvil. I did a little searching on the fourm and didn't see anything that looked like the markings on my anvil, but I don't have much to work with.
There are some faint markings on the side, maybe someone can make something of them? Does anyone speak Beat-up-metal?
I believe the anvil is about 400lbs, but not certain.
Follow up question: reasonable pricing estimate for the anvil pictured?
Thanks,
Dave

There are flats where the Anvil is clamped down to the base.
I hope it gets to stay local, I have found two locals interested, both of which without any money. but its only the first weekend I attempted to sell anything so we will see where it all goes.
