sure its worth it... a little small in my opinion but should work to get you started !



Thanks for the reply. I had the same thought, but figured something was better than nothing.

Good starter anvil and then can morph into your travel anvil as you move up to a bigger shop anvil. As for price as a new anvil you can see what they go for new and then decide if it's a good price compared to an older anvil.

Well I bought it and paid the full price because he delivered it to me.



If you are happy then it was worth it. That is a well reviewed (if smaller) anvil.

I am happy with it. I can't wait to start using it. I am taking a class next month from a local blacksmith. I am really excited about starting this. I was a welder for a long time and still do some welding on the side. I got alot of pleasure from that and have always wanted to start doing some blacksmithing.

It appears to be a farrier's anvil. Maybe when you get into things you will find a farrier who would be happy to buy from you for more than you gave for it. It would be worth more to him or her.

You should be fine with it. Good luck.
