February 25, 201610 yr Author I'm waiting for more pictures and info. I guess will ask better questions. Does it look to be in good shape? Usable? Any thoughts other than it being anvil shaped.
February 25, 201610 yr There is something fishy from the way it looks in the photo, but one cannot be sure unless other pictures are supplied!
February 25, 201610 yr Some people are using sledge hammer heads to work on or RR rails this "Looks" like it would work but looks can be deceiving , what is the rebound, what is the price and what is the funny looking hump on the side? Looks like a Farrier Anvil with the side clip on it, makes no difference my son has one works fine. Better than nothing, MAYBE.
February 25, 201610 yr Author Ya its 500 obo. I have some feelers out localy so hopefully something turns up. I was trying to rush into finding one but I am now going to wait to find a decent one

The feet looked forged, the line on the side looks like a weld or an addition, and the horn has a strange squarish transition. Could be worthwhile, but its hard to make an oficial pronouncement until more photos are provided.
February 25, 201610 yr I have a 400# Trenton that has the same weird side; looks like they forge welded the top section onto a slightly different base than usual on mine---As was known to happen when the maker ran out of a particular base and had an anvil to get out the door. Any idea of what the bottom looks like?
