rkujawa Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 212 lb Peter Wright. I felt that with this type of thing the time to buy is when you find it. There's a bit of chipped edges and most edges are rounded. The horn is worn unevenly but the rebound seems very good and there's no huge gouges in the face. I paid $500. Was it a fair price for the condition? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EtownAndrew Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Yes that does seem a fair price for the condition. The condition looks worn but quite serviceable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swedefiddle Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Good Morning, Good Condition as it is, not perfect, but good. Use it as it is and enjoy the journey of making other tools to fit it.

ThomasPowers Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 I think it's a bit high so quick run out and make a dozen bottle openers and sell them and apply that to the price and then it will be spot on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenn Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Like Thomas said, make a bunch of stuff. Sell $500 of the stuff you make, and the anvil is now FREE. Anything after that is profit, and funds for the next tool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rkujawa Posted June 17, 2014 Author Share Posted June 17, 2014 Thanks for all the support. I'm still not quite where I want to be with my other project before I can get heavy with blacksmithing yet. Just getting tooled up and educated right now. I'm far from rich but I'm in the position where I have less time than money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
