Customer Reviews for Steel Anvil Blacksmith 44.1LBS (20KG) Forged Steel W/ Round And Square Hole

This anvil is my first steel anvil & it is perfec for my needs..it's a major step up from my 55lb cast iron one.. rebound is immense by comparison so work is reduced..Recommended as a great starter anvil

Good enough anvil for a knifemaker in a small shop.

I ordered the 132lb. Version. Can't beat it for the money, good rebound, I like mine.

Awesome for the price!Please note, you arent paying for a high quality anvil, Like...at all.. BUT it is very good for the price and gets the job done. Has a good ring to it and decent recoil. Not the best, but good. The BLUE color is butt ugly, so i ground that down and oiled it. It is also mold formed steel. So there is ALOT of flaws like gouges in the metal. Nothing a welder and some grinding couldnt fix. There was noticeable welds that were pre done from factory. I just added to it to smooth out. Top surface was smooth. Just rounded the edges and cleaned up he hardy hole. Alot of burrs and rough edges. Over all would buy another if i needed it!

I didn't like the blue paint so I took the finish off with sanding disks on my grinder and rounded the corners. It was actually more shiny than this before I put a coat of Danish oil on it. Definitely cast steel from top to bottom. Face is hardened with a lot of rebound. The only thing that would make this Anvil better is if it was painted black or gray instead of the aqua blue.

Had a few knicks in it and wasn_ packaged very well. Good for the price and as a starter.

This makes a very good starter and Bill, was better than I expected. After several half mast and completely missed blows with a 2 1/2 pound hammer there is no damage to the face. Highly recommended.

I did a ton of research and this anvil gave the best bang for your buck. Mind you, this is not the cast iron model so be sure to select the correct one. Delivered on time without even a dent in the packaging. As for quality, perfect size for the amateur, good rebound and a nice ping to it. Included a blade about 6""x2"" (without tang) for size reference. Definitely worth the $$ and no regrets on this purchase. Might add some magnets or chain to deaden the noise for the neighbors sanity. Hope this helps.

Awesome product! ! I was at first concerned about this anvil because of the low price typically you get what you pay for. Not this time the anvil is large enough to forge swords and plenty enough weight and room to do just about any job a $500-$2000 anvil can do. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. And I received it in 6 days much earlier than the posted date. Yes it rings like a bell with only a tap.

Didnt like the anvil shape as it wasnt the hopopular but it was useable.
