Good solid anvil. Great addition to my leather shop.

Nice little anvil that feels great for beginners such as myself. Nice rebound which was a nice surprise. It does ring pretty good so I recommend some chain and or magnets. For the price I would certainly recommend

Bon rebond, bonne sonorité, elle est borgne, je l'utilise pour le martelage à froid des rivets Ne convient pas pour les rivets en acier non trempés (marquage de la table). La finition est perfectible, surtout au niveau de la bigorne et des arêtes.

This is the best cast steel anvil you can get right now for this price. Before this you were stuck with cast iron or a much smaller cast steel anvil unless you wanted to pay 3x as much. Vevor has decent quality control and for the budget blacksmith this 66lb'er cannot be beat. This is the second one I've bought, the first I use for blacksmithing classes where I teach kids 10 and up the basics. This one I'm keeping at my home forge so I don't have to transport the other back and forth. If you've gotten to the point where the Harbor Freight 55lb cast iron anvil isn't good enough (mine is in sad shape from the kids practicing, which is the best use for that one) or are just getting started and want to skip the \"anvil shaped object\" stage, this is definitely the one you want. In case you don't know, here's the difference: Cast steel is hard, it resists denting and reflects back a much greater percentage of the force of your hammer strikes into the other side of your work. It also leaves a much cleaner finish since the surface is smooth and dent resistant. Cast iron is soft, it dents like wood and every one of those dents will reflect on the other side of your work as you strike. It also absorbs much of the energy you put into your hammer strikes, which makes forging take more effort. Cast iron is ok for the very early stages where you're just trying to see if you enjoy the craft, but the moment you decide you want to continue smithing you will wish you had a steel anvil.

Very satisfied and husband had no idea.

I was very pleased when my anvil arrived earlier than expected. The gentlemen delivering it were very kind and I got exactly what I asked for!!

Blown away by the nearly perfect condition it arrived in, as I was somewhat expecting it to show up kinda dinged up and used. This anvil only has 30 ratings backing it, so the average person may not realize how good of a value this is. Generally I don't purchase items online that have so few reviews, but this was a splendid exception! Most steel anvils on Amazon look ugly as sin. It's fairly difficult to locate a steel, London style single-horn anvil that also has a pleasant aesthetic. Most London style anvils on Amazon are made of cast iron, and while though attractive to look at, don't hold up very well against smithing/hammering. This is more for jewelry and small-scale metalsmithing, as it only weighs 9 Lbs and the anvil surface is only so big. Perfect for me though! Couldn't have purchased this any sooner, and I unexpectedly received this anvil the very next day after ordering it. Thanks very much to the seller SupDear!

It’s no Peter Wright but it rebounds decent and does the job.

Been using this exact anvil for 2 years making knives
