DutchBlacksmith Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 So I bough my new anvil today, it was an absolute steal, all I know is that i's a German anvil weighing arround 250 kilos (551 pound) and I bought it for 320 euros, so I pratically stole it from the guy, but I don't know the make and i'd really like to know if anyone knows a little bit more about it. Thanks in advace, Dutch Blacksmith Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know nothing about German anvils, but the price is right, the rebound is good, the condition looks okay -- start pounding hot steel on it! You might want to take a wire brush to the face to knock off the loose rust, but don't do any grinding -- it doesn't need it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
