BIGGUNDOCTOR Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I was at a friend's house, and took some pictures of a sawyer that was given to him along with some other anvils from his friend's estate. I gave it a good looking over, but did not see any marks of any kind. If there are some, they may be under the angle iron holding it down. It is a fairly heavy one, I would say at least 200# to possibly 250# going by dimensions and steel being 490# per cubic foot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlatLiner Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 I really like sawyer anvils. Are you thinking of buying it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGGUNDOCTOR Posted February 8, 2021 Author Share Posted February 8, 2021 No, I have plenty of anvils. I was just sharing it with the group. I like the Carborundum inventory tag myself. I have a 150# Vulcan with a school district tag still on it. My main anvil is a 260# Fisher that my Dad bought in Lincoln CA back around 1977.

FlatLiner Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 That is a pretty cool detail. I find small details like that interesting. Someday I would like to find a heavier anvil for my inventory. But I make due just fine with what I have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomasPowers Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Ask around the old mining districts, my 400#+ Trenton anvil came from a copper mine in AZ. I believe the 248# HB I recently sold was used in a mining district in Colorado. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
