September 13, 201114 yr Going to check it out tomorrow, it's a screaming good deal I came across on craigslist. The guy wasn't sure about the weight, but he guessed 150 (probably a fair bit less than that in reality). He said it has "Burlington, WI" on the side and the numbers (I think this is what he said) 58 and 3. Unfortunately the small image is all I have. edit: meant Burlington, not baltimore as the title says
September 13, 201114 yr probally from Centaur forge and quite possibly a kowlswa as they imported them under the Centaur name And they are in burlington wI
September 13, 201114 yr Author probally from Centaur forge and quite possibly a kowlswa as they imported them under the Centaur name And they are in burlington wI Good call, I forgot that I think he also said it had "Sweden" on the side. I think the spelling is Kohlswa. Looks like they make good anvils, so this is a heck of a deal! Thanks so much
September 14, 201114 yr Author Ugh! This was such a good deal. Was going to get it for $175, but I guess I have to be an ADULT and not buy it because I've already too much on blacksmithing stuff. Having to pass on it. It was listed in the Dallas craigslist if anyone is interested.
September 14, 201114 yr Being an adult sucks I was so happy when I finally entered my second childhood :)
September 14, 201114 yr Author Okay so I decided to pick it up today anyway. I can always flip it for at LEAST as much as I'm buying it for, if not more. Screw being responsible! I feel like this is going to happen a lot in my life.
September 15, 201114 yr Author Bought it for $200: It looks darn near brand new. I'm gonna shine it up a bit and it probably will look new. No real knicks or pitting anywhere. Whoever has owned this in the past hasn't done anything with it. Pings super loud and long when I tap it.
September 15, 201114 yr Author Probably 58 kilograms or 127.6 pounds! Turns out it says "56" and then "B" below, so more like 123 pounds. Thanks!
