New Massive Anvil

Featured Replies

Good morning,

 

I have recently come across a new (to me) anvil. I was wondering if anyone could give me any sort of idea of the identification of the manufacturere. 

 

The three numbers stamped on the side are: 3..3..5

 

Any help would be appreciated..

425 lbs. 3 x 112 is 336, 3 x 28 is 84, + 5 lbs.

 

Nice find! I'm jealous, my lower back is relieved you got it instead of me.

425 lb

 

3 Hundredweight of 112 lb each               336 Lb

3 Quarterhundredweight of 28 lb each       84 Lb

5 pounds of 1 lb each                                   5 Lb

 

Total                                                          425 Lb

Weight markings are English, style is more Continental, German maybe?

i have seen a few  anvils with that shape and they have been isac nash stourbribge

I have owned a few like that peter wright and other unmarked . We would call them a ship writes anvil or dockyard anvil here.

 the step at both bickes differentiates them from the continental anvils.

 looks like a fine anvil.

A fine anvil you have there. You rarely see ones like that in good condition so they obviously had hard lives. 

 

All the best

Looks minty from the side view, great find!

And you found it in a lumberyard, I would say that those are good people to know.
