[TheForge] Another new anvil on ebay

Mon Jan 13 20:18:01 2003

Yea, I thought it looked like the czech anvils. What threw me off was his
statement:
"You are buying a brand new high carbon steel anvil.These double horn anvils
are cast from a pattern of my own design."
It looks like the same pattern the Czech's been making before.
I own 2 czech anvils. The first one I bought from Dean & Eilleen, Forge &
Anvil Metal Studio (Canada). The second from Dan, Old World Anvils
(Arkansas). Actually, I have a third one that's a small 3 kg model which I
got from Dean. I would recommend dealing with either of these two
businesses. They all great people who stand behind what they sell. I have
not dealt with Euroanvils, so have no idea how good they are.
Terry, thanks for the websites. I checked it out...I didn't know they made
swedge blocks...mmmm....a metric swedge block. I suppose I could go metric.
Got me a metric crecent wrench. :-)
Thanks again.
Rob
