I Forge Iron

First Anvil


Recommended Posts

This was the first anvil I came across when I first started getting into blacksmithing at the beginning of July. It's 60 pounds. I haven't been able to figure out what brand it is, but it has really good rebound. For a first anvil it's not too bad. If anybody knows the brand I'd appreciate some feedback.

Looks like a lot of rebuilding on it; what's the rebound test numbers for it?

For my first anvil it was a good price to start with.  Rebound is close to 70%. It's a better start than the harbor freight anvils for sure. I've found some other anvils at some antique shops around me, but for right now they are a little out of my price range. When I get settled in my new house in a few months I'll be forging a lot more, and wont have to worry about moving costs, etc.

I don’t know but did find this thread: Click here

A google search turned up other posts here and other forums concerning anvils with 6 point star in circle logo. 

Thank you, hopefully I can find some more information.
