The guy who sold it to me sand blasted it abit to remove some rust,i can't see any #'s on feet.Thanks..

:DNot sure if the hole is was added later or not,don't think someone drilled it after it was made......BUT....thats just me.Maybe it was for bending small things or for a lower step tool..?????Thanks fer reply.

Frank,mine is more like 6''x 41/2''.Thanks for help.

I bought it for less than 1 dollar per pound. I was told that it is either a Trenton or maybe a HB or just something else all together. It weighs 175 lbs on a bathroom scale, overall length is 27 1/4", the horn is 8 1/2" long and about 13 1/2" round at the thickest point by shelf. It has an unusual size hardy @ 1 1/8" with a 5/8" pritchell. Underneath the base is somewhat convex. It is definetly a cast base by looking at the excess around the trim of the base. Has a narrow waist as you can see and a thin heel. The hardy appears to be punched through by the bulge underneath it. I can hardly read any of the letters on its side.(Possible R or maybe B N O or maybe C O or maybe C) Again I tried chalk, powder, pencil rubbing on paper and nothing worked to make the letters presentable. Don't know if the hole through the base is original or not. It has a #25 on heel w/horn facing left and a #6 underneath horn. I read somewhere that the #6 maybe an inspector's number (usually ranges from 0-9) and the #25 maybe a specific run of steel from the supplier. It has a nice ring and at least 50% rebound. It also has a slight sway back at sweet spot.
