Customer Reviews for VEVOR Cast Iron Anvil, 22 Lbs/10kg Single Horn Anvil, with Large Countertop and Stable Base, High Hardness Rugged Round Horn Anvil Blacksmith, for Shaping, Bending

Can't be beat for the price, especially since it is shipped. Weight is solid, hardened correctly, true enough. Does exactly what a 100+lb anvil should.

Finally got it! 👍

produit conforme tout ok sauf livraison . j'ai du aller chercher le produit moi m^eme.le produit est resté une semaine chez le representant de UPS.

Trevlig liten stålklump att ha i garaget, kommer säkert till användning någon gång. Ytan är planslipad, finns grader efter gjutningen, finns överspacklade områden med mindre gjutfel. Fin klang när man slår med hammaren. Observera att det är ett ministäd, de som fans i smedjorna vägde minst runt 130 kg. Tog 10 dagar för leverans till Sverige, inga problem. Jag är nöjd. :)

Kovadlina dorazila zabalená pouze v kartonové krabici, ale nepoškozená. Je to opravdu masivní kus železa. Prozatím nemám moc zkušenosti s touto kovadlinou, ale myslim, že to bude v pohodě. Neočekávám od ní že mě přežije a budou se na ní učit kovat ještě moje vnoučata nebo pravnoučata. To co od té kovadliny očekávám je, abych se na ní naučil kovat čepele a nepochybuji o tom, že to tenhle 40kg mazlík splní. Podle mé dosavadní, byť krátké, zkušenosti mohu kovadlinu doporučit.

A great starter. The hardy hole is rough and oddly shaped, way bigger than tools you'll try to put in there. Otherwise it's solid, paint comes off easily if you don't like blue lol

Well made and durable.

Bonne enclume mais le trou pour mettre les outils n'est pas de taille standard (trop grand)

When I drop a 1.25 inch ball bearing on it I get about a 90 percent rebound, and a nice ring! and I haven't put any dents in it yet. the horn is just the cast finish so its kinda ruff

This anvil does what an anvil needs to do in that it is a heavy block of metal to work hot steel on, and it's very reasonably priced. It has some shortcomings, however: 1) the horn is way too fat to be truly useful for fine blacksmithing; 2) the open belly sacrifices mass that would make the anvil much more solid if that void were filled; 3) the casting is poor, leaving the body with holes and porosity that gets covered with plastic body filler; and 4) the Pritchel (or punch) hole (the round hole) is in a completely useless position, and it is way too big. Instead of drilling it one-inch in diameter in the horn, drill it 1/2" to 9/16" in the heel, between the Hardy (square) hole and the end of the heel.
