Customer Reviews for VEVOR Single Horn Anvil, 22Lbs Cast Steel Anvil, High Hardness Rugged Round Horn Anvil Blacksmith, Large Countertop and Stable Base, with Round and Square Hole, Metalsmith Tool for Bending and Shaping

This small anvil arrived quickly. I did have to take a floppy disk to it and remove a couple cast imperfections, reshape the horn, but all in all it's worth the money. I use it for small jewellery and it works well for that, I wouldn't try making knifes on an anvil this small. Btw, it is steel and not cast iron.

It worked for what I need it for.LS

With silversmithing as a hobby I occasionally make an iron or steel tool so this little anvil does double duty. Would like to have one of its bigger brothers but have no room for anything bigger than the 22 lb / 10 kg that I purchased. Should anything happen to this one, I would replace it with an identical anvil. I'm just that pleased and couldn't be happier with this purchase. Had almost given up finding one this size and pattern in steel.Travis

It needs some dressing up out of the box. The blue paint is hideous. It's not quite as nice as a name brand anvil. But for the hobbyist that can't find a good old anvil it works good. Two notes for the manufacturer (as if they'll ever see this). Stop filling it with bondo, and stop painting it. They look so much better with the casting imperfections on display and in a natural steel color.

It was smaller than I expected, but I think it will work for most of my purposes.

I have a ranch and this anvil is the perfect size or general blacksmithing!

This is not the best anvil in the world. It doesn't pretend to be, and it doesn't come close.However, this anvil is by FAR the best combination of usability, size and value for money on the market. Bar none, no exceptions. It's a new steel anvil for 60-75% the price of *used* market, and it's half (or less) the price of any other new cast anvil.If you have any use at all for an anvil, buy one. Even if you later buy a better anvil, the value here is just so astonishing that you will be kicking yourself if you pass on it and they disappear.This anvil does require significant cleanup. The castings are rough, so the horn needs quite a bit of work with an angle grinder before it can be effectively used. Doesn't matter, at this price I'd still be happy if I had to weld the darn thing together.

Withstood entire day of hard forging on edge with no defects. Weighed 136lb on scale. Filed edge more rounded so work edge better. Nice ring but chain makes quiet. Another company had $30 cheaper, company refunded difference, amazing. Solid performing anvil, highly recommend for the price. Spark test showed high carbon steel. You like!

Great starter anvil

I ordered the 132lb. Version. Can't beat it for the money, good rebound, I like mine.
