Thanks so much for your review of the anvil and showing how to clean it up. I'm a new silversmith and couldn't afford a big anvil. I bought this using your affiliate link. Yesterday I cleaned up the horn. With hours of work i was able to make this completely smooth for fine metal working. Grateful for your sharing of knowledge.

Id love to see some more videos for this anvil, maybe make some hardy tools? Also you mentioned fixing up the pritchel hole, id really love to see you do that. Thanks Again

Hello, fellow blacksmith here.. I bought the same anvil from our local hardware store here in Victoria, BC called Princess Auto and they sell them instore so you can examine them and pick the one that's casted the best.. I welded footings onto the anvil to be able to bolt it down to a block so it's extra solid.. I have the 22 lb and 44 lb and they are great! I'm not Christian myself, I'm Norse Pagan, as white people have been pagan for thousands of years, going back to the stone age, bronze age and into the iron age.. I found that connection to ancestors and appreciation of nature that comes with Norse Paganism has made my life the best its ever been.. Blacksmithing helps too.. ;) As well as being a welder, have a truck and a great career.. Thank you Odin for giving me the wisdom of the smith.. May the gods bless you, friend!

You need to spray the anvil with salty water and let it sit for a few days until it gets a fine rusty coat, then you spray the neutralizer/convertor on and the rust converts to black iron oxide which then protects the surface from future rust. These products have a polymer mixed in with the acid that coats the metal with a thin plastic coat. It comes in bottles and is far easier to brush on, or it can also be applied by a sponge or rag. The bottle will last years, whereas the can is a rip off. Look for Rust Converter and there are heaps of products out there. Wear chemical proof gloves and eye protection... preferably a face mask!

As another choice which I would use for protecting the steel, I would suggest painting the entire anvil with "Gun Bluing" at least 3 soaked-in coats which will really keep rust from forming on the metal. Go to your nearest Gun Store and ask the gun mechanic which brand of Gun Bluing that the store sells would he use to protect solid steel and you can bet that if you follow his instructions, you will be really pleased with the results.

I just received my 132 lb model, in black. For some reason they have two versions of at least the two largest models. The black one is the harder model, rated by them at 55RC, vs. 50RC for the blue model. I would understand that if the prices were noticeably different, but they seem to be exactly the same! I paid $275.49 delivered. The price from the vendor has popped up to to $285.49 the day after I bought mine. Now, a complaint about shipping has been that it comes either in a cardboard box with some ineffective packaging material, or no box, with just a shipping label tagged to the hole. Well, mine came in a wood crate. I don’t know if that’s just the black models, but I was pleasantly surprised. I wish I could append a picture. I tested the hardness with my files as this will never fit in my Rockwell tester. The 60 file made a very slight scratch, and the 55 hardly anything at all, while the 50 just skidded around. So it’s close to the 55 they stated. I haven’t had time to do much else yet, but I’m designing a movable stand.

This is an interesting anvil. I like the wide main striking area, the roundness of the horn and the relative stoutness of the longer square end. The only think I don’t like or don’t understand is how all that air under the striking area might impact the longevity of this anvil. I’ve never seen any of the established makers have such a hollow in the foot area. Wouldn’t it have made sense to set this up and cast it with a solid foot? I wonder if anyone with one of these have ever considered making a mold for this and filling in that triangle cavity with new cast iron and then welding the resulting seam OR, just filling it in with lead or tin, squaring the base and mounting it on a stand that way. What I’m getting at: would more mass in that area make it more lively or would it take away the bounce?

So I have a budget of around $500.00. And I’ve been looking at a few options for an anvil. The atlas graham 117#, the NC Calvary anvil 112# and the Acciaio in the same # range. The first two are in the $500 range, would it be worth the money? Or should I save a couple hundred and go with the Acciaio? I can afford it, but is the quality that much better? Really leaning toward the atlas, but if I can save money, I don’t see why I wouldn’t. On the flip side, if the quality is worth it, I have no problem shelling it out.

BTW WD40 is way more of a solvent than an oil and it actually blasts lubricants of all kinds OFF whatever and so if one uses WD40 it should be used to clean rather than lube ...like it is great for cleaning firearms ...we used it in the military but THEN we applied LSA lubicant. I never use WD40 as a lubricant....but hey they have a great gig going because say you have something sqeaking? You squirt wd40 and it stops ...for a very short time typically because it hardly has any oil ....the stuff actually blasts grease and oil OUT of mechanical bearings etc and is often responsible for severe damage for lack of lubircant

It is supposed to be used to prepare rusty surfaces to be painted. So, why did you use it? I'll wind up using it on my trailer that sits beside my house.

That rust inhibitor sounds alot like phosphoric acid, turns iron oxide into phosphorus oxide. Auto body shops buy it as a product called "Ospho".
