Customer Reviews for VEVOR Cast Steel Anvil, 132 Lbs(60kg) Single Horn Anvil with Large Countertop and Stable Base, High Hardness Rugged Round Horn Anvil Blacksmith, for Bending, Shaping

For the money, this is an excellent anvil. Especially for the beginner blacksmith. Someone that doesn't have a lot of money...

Good strike surface, horn very rough, need fair amount of grinding to smooth out. Was not shipped in crate but arrived ok.

Cast Iron Anvil, 132 Lbs(60kg) Single Horn Anvil with Large Countertop and Stable Base, High Hardness Rugged Round Horn Anvil Blacksmith

Haven’t had time to try it yet but rebound seems ok. The “pritchel hole is a joke. Badly located & WAY TOO BIG! Whoever designed it has no idea what a pritchel hole is used for, they deliberately misled beginners in the field of blacksmithing. I suspect that the hole has something to do with the manufacturing process but it’s useless as a tool holder However, I can drill my own hole at the back, where it should be, if I can get a hard enough bit. The price of the anvil & it’s other good properties makes it a good buy! But don’t try to bafflegab people with nonsense. It would be a simple fix just to drill another hole at the back of the correct size

Works great could be harder the hardie hole is not cut very clean and I got one with a bunch of filler. The horn is a really weird shape but for the price can’t beat it

Enclume très stable et robuste. Je lui ai fabriqué un billot en bois pour à ma taille et pour éviter les vibrations à la frappe.

Just finish up the edges and put it on a secure pedistal, in the right hight. Bought a stone cracker and forged it to fit the hardy hole. Should have gotten a bigger anvil but I'll place a concrete block on the bottom and secure it with bolts soon to keep it from bouncing around.

This 22# anvil was mailed without any padding in a cardboard box (see photos) that fell apart in transit, and the anvil was scratched in many places. The rust has started taking over where the paint was scratched off.

Arrived very poorly packaged in a crap box with no packing material.This anvil is both cast and steel. The casting marks are clear however it is cast solid steel and not hollowform cast iron. Is it forged? Meh. Is it heat treated? Also. Meh.The top surface is a ground finish. The edges are rough, pitted, and sharp. A little grinding on the sides gets you down to clean metal and you can then break the edges to a well rounded shape.The horn is covered with a thick coat of paint with deep pitting beneath. It took some effort with a variety of flap discs, mill files, and sandpaper to remove the pitting but the steel beneath is solid.All in all. Not a bad little anvil for working at a small scale. I give it a four out five because it is about the only anvil available in this weight, and the price is okay but it does need some work to bring it up to an acceptable working state.

Ottima incudine come da descrizione. Imballaggio a posto. Niente ruggine. Peso confermato. Spedizione lenta.
