Rascal Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 May want to purchase swage block from on-line auction. What do I look for if I must purchase based on the picture. It weighs 200 lbs---would that indicate it's a good one ---purchasing as a gift for blacksmith that needs one. Thank you. Quote

Glenn Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Request more photos from the seller. They should be happy to send photos of all sides, and all edges. If not, there may be a problem with the swage block and or the seller. Quote
jimbob Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 what do you want to do with it ...make shovels or spoons, ladles or hardy tools...does it have square holes through it what about on the edges what kind of depressions does it have...half round diamond hex... Quote
Frosty Posted February 6, 2009 Posted February 6, 2009 Welcome aboard Rascal, glad to have ya. Pictures would really help. If you'll click "User CP" at the top of the page and edit your profile to show your location it'll really help. There are likely to be folk close enough to lend you a hand directly. Frosty Quote
