December 4, 200916 yr Ive done it again, i have managed to get yet another Kohlswa! Yippy!! pics will come soon, Joe
December 4, 200916 yr Are the Kohlswa's the most predominant anvil found in your part of the world, or do you focus your collection on them? Considering they are made in Sweden, it would stand to reason that they would be more common than other brands. I would love to get my hands on the 672 pound London Pattern Kohlswa that is still being cast.
December 4, 200916 yr thats so cool! im quite envious! thanks for tracking the progress of your addiction for us - its very funny!:)

December 5, 200916 yr Author i wouldnt mind getting that style of anvil for my shop i like that style never used one but the tapered backside looks like it would be useful i wanna upgrade from my 170#ish non prichel mousehole Yes, i find them quite handy, its called the North-German form, made in Sweden but it has the North-German form.
December 6, 200916 yr OLD baby made in 1944? Most of mine are about 30+yrs older. Shoot I was made in 45 ain't OLD yet. As an old swede I would like one. Can't find a good affordable one. Enjoy. Ken
December 7, 200916 yr Very nice anvils Joe. I have two Peter Wrights, an American Wrought and an ancient mousehole. Maybe your four anvils could get together with my four anvils for a play date?:D
December 7, 200916 yr Made in 1944, must have been made at the latter end of WW2. How is the quality compared to the post war anvils?
December 8, 200916 yr sure if that is what you have if it doesnt break when you pound steel on it then it will work:)
December 8, 200916 yr Yes, i find them quite handy, its called the North-German form, made in Sweden but it has the North-German form. is that style of anvil hard to come by? are they still being made? and how much do you think a fair price for a used one would be if a came across one?
December 8, 200916 yr Yes i think those are still being made, looks like a b25, kohlswas currently in production Kohlswa Gjuteri
December 8, 200916 yr Author 55 Lb anil good to start with?? yea you can have a good start with that, so you can practise.
December 8, 200916 yr Author is that style of anvil hard to come by? are they still being made? and how much do you think a fair price for a used one would be if a came across one?
