First Impressions, clang for the buck? Can not beat the price per pound. Arched base moves weight up into the striking face=more working area than traditional anvis with solid base. Brand new, never struck "not"collectable which is good....now you can keep a fresh edge and not cry about taking your 7in grinder to the other edge and get that tapered bevel you wish was on your classic avail but don't want to grind a 140year old beauty. Not so great features, pritchle hole is on the horn butted up against the face.....not good 1 it's way to big a hole, 2 it's right we're the step should be.... Which by the way is missing completely and a huge problem "I'd recommend not chisel cuting on the horn as that big hole is there and I'd be worried to lose the horn completely" just use something else for striking hard tools in not this anvil. Only other glaring thing I don't care for is how short and wide the horn is,. Will have to see how it performs in the future. Otherwise you can't lose for the price and free shipping if you need a good size anvil and are in a bugget....... don't hesitate just get one, easy decision.

I was about to give only three stars because you are almost forcing me to write this review by sending email reminders without any opt out option and asking for more than 100 characters. Stop doing this, you're going to end up with bad reviews. Great Anvil though.

I've been using this anvil for alittle over a month and it seems to be a great anvil for a low cost. It has great rebound and has been able to do what I need it to do. It has a few small flaws but for the price you can deal with it.

Great product, as described. the hardie hole was in good condition, though the pritcher is in the oddest location and very large, possibly just intended as a drifting hole. for the price, a great anvil

This anvil exceeded my expectations. I am not a blacksmith and I am not using this for blacksmithing. I am a home shop machinist and this fits the bill for an anvil I can throw on the bench when I need it but remains under the bench when not in use. Machining and finish are nice and the anvil has plenty of mass. Highly recommended.

This anvil is perfect for smaller projects. It is made very well for the price. I would purchase this instead of spending big money on another anvil when this one performs just as good if not better. Thanks vevor. To me you have a great future in tools. I would love to try tools out in the future and do reviews on my youtube channel. Thanks

Very cool. Very Heavy. Delivered close enough to my shop door. Looks great and takes a beating. Didn't think I could afford an anvil this size but Vevor came through as usual.

Anvil arrived in a wooden crate in great shape. No dings at all. The Pritchel hole is not usable as is, but I knew that would be the case. Rebound is good.

I'm not a blacksmith, I dont know what a pritchard hole is. I'm just a dude who hammers on ordnance at a BRACed munitions depot for money. I found the scavenged railroad tie plate they gave me for this purpose too soft and bouncy. The anvil surface is hard and flat, and the round horn is handy for opening up pinched 37mm's for inspection and clearing. It has been sitting exposed to cold and very damp weather for a few days and doesn't show any rust yet. The blue paint comes off onto everything that conctacts with it. The casting is rough at the holes in the feet and very sharp in places. I was hoping to lag screw the anvil to a log I was given for a pounding station, but the feet holes are unsuitable for this. I'm not sure if that's a normal anvil feature. I chiseled a pair of recesses into my log so it sits secure enough. Shipping was pretty quick. All in all, I say it beats the hell out of using a tie plate.

I have been making blades for over four years, and wanted a second anvil. I saw the attractive price and decided to try it out. The description says it's cast steel (never purchase a cast iron anvil. Iron is to soft) and it had a 52 hardness. I built a three legged base with 1/4" 2"x2" tubing for the legs and 1/2" plate steel for the base for the anvil to sit on. I filled the legs with sand, tapped the legs with a hammer to get as much sand to compact. This adds weight that you want to keep it from jumping around when using. I dropped a 1" steel ball bearing on the anvil after attaching it to the base from 2' above. The "rebound" of the bearing was 14". When striking some HOT out of the forge 1095 carbon steel with a 3# cross pein hammer, the sound of the strikes were dull and low. (that's what you want) The farther toward the rear of the anvil you strike, it doesn't have the same sound or recoil as the center of the anvil. I also question the hardness of the face. I did manage to put a small dent in the face. I will test the hardness later to see what I get. Overall, it's a great buy at the price! It doesn't come close to my 300#TFS anvil, but it also didn't cost $2,800.00. I would recommend this VEVOR anvil to anyone getting into blacksmithing/bladesmithing, or just needing something to pound on.
