Dowen Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 I recently inherited my father’s anvil, which was his father’s anvil. As you can tell from the pics it’s been worked over. It has a #10 on the side but any other markings are worn off. Trying to trace the origins and branding. Any help is appreciated, I started bladesmithing 2 years ago with a home made forge.

njanvilman Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 Your anvil is a relic of thousands of hours of use. There is no flat surface left to work with. You might want to retire your family heirloom, and look for a better one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
