Blueforge2 Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Any Idea of how old? No visible markings. 165lbs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fluidsteel Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Oooh yeah... No pritchel hole or hardy hole, the rest of the shape likely makes it a colonial anvil. It's old. 150+ years old. Maybe 300? Take care of it, use it if you want but don't abuse it. It's a good size for an old one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swedefiddle Posted May 1, 2014 Share Posted May 1, 2014 Good Morning, It is old enough to still want you to use it. Hold it's hand, treat it wisely, spank it with a hammer and don't miss your target piece. Neil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueforge2 Posted May 5, 2014 Author Share Posted May 5, 2014 Thanks, I guess I will never know the maker. It made its way with a family from Bath New York to TN in the early 60's. I plan on mounting it as soon as I have time and bringing it back to life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted May 7, 2014 Share Posted May 7, 2014 East Tn, close to Knoxville. If you put your general location in the header we won't keep bugging you. You certainly don't think we're going to remember this one mention do you? <grin> Sweet anvil. Frosty The Lucky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
