Customer Reviews for VEVOR Blacksmith Anvil Steel Round Horn Anvil 22lb 10kg 2 Holes for Metal Work

So I got one of these anvils not long after Old Hickory Forge posted his review video, mine came with some kind of clear coat on the face, (which I only noticed after trying the anvil the first time and the coating burned and stank) and the horn was painted, and still rough casting texture. I attacked the thing with a flap disc, got the coating off the face, dressed up the edges, The ring on the thing is fierce. Mounted down to my loose stump gets it tolerable, I think if I had a set stump it’d calm it down more. The pritchel hole is mostly worthless due to its location, but I did make some holdfasts that work in it. The hardy hole is a bit to close to the body of the anvil, so if you are punching through the hardy, your punch can hit the body/foot of the anvil and get stuck. Not world ending, but makes drifting a bit touchy.I just made a bolster plate that works like a saddle to more or less let you use the hardy as a pritchel, will see how helpful that is.Only real complaint is the location of the hardy/pritchel holes, and the horn on mine is kinda awkwardly fat, more like the toe of a boot instead of a cone. If I get fed up enough with the horn I may try and grind it down to a more useful shape.All said, for starting out and working on smaller projects it is a perfectly acceptable starter anvil. The double horn really does come in handy for dealing with small pieces, and the price is hard to beat.

Use full tool.$90 for a cast iron anvil.Cast iron is brittle and soft.The anvil dents easily but thats to expected from cast iron.Don't use a 10lbs hamer on it ,you'll brake it.If it becomes to much dented flip it upside down on a belt grinder.Otherwise spend $250 for Carbon steel one

As expectyed

It's a smaller anvil, as expected, but functionally it works as intended, even if there was some confusion/issue with the shipping. Still, it's an anvil, and it works.

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.

Great anvil and works perfect for blacksmithing

Great value for the money. I have not had the opportunity to use the anvil but it appears to be well made, sturdy and durable. I look forward to this anvil getting lots of use.

Not bad of a little anvil for what it is. The seller is great to deal with and the product arrived fast and it was exactly as I expected. Good for a starter anvil.

Well, mine came today, and as you can see the box had a hard travel. Mine came in blue, which I will be removing especially because it's chipped on the feet. You don't always realize how heavy 66 lbs of steel in that size REALLY is. Once my back heals up I'll update on how well it works for me. Also, mine came with this little rock hammer. It didn't fair so great in transit. Dunno what it's supposed to be for, but hey, free hammer!

Gets the job done. I use it for knife making and it’s perfect for what I need. Not too big and works great for what I need. Good sound too.
