Let us presents to you our own project – a artistic-blacksmith’s anvil! After conferring with blacksmithing masters, I created a model of an anvil that features many useful upgrades for all sorts of blacksmithing methods.

The foot of the anvil was designed not just for supporting the whole anvil – there are various nooks and crannies waiting for your imagination.

The peen die is sufficiently resilient as is its base.

The hole below the horn can be filled with Vaseline for dipping your drifts and chisels.

The horn itself is a regular cone for turning rings and for creating funnel-like forged pieces. There’s an 18-mm hole in the base of the anvil for passing drifts through pipes. The horn tapers down to 12 mm.

The breasts of the anvil are segmented – a part at 45° and the other at 60°. Among the 90° pyramid-heel and the breasts, you can forge pieces angled to the three basic angles.

The face of the anvil is straight from the heel to the 12x12 mm tip of the horn, quenched to 60 HRC and finely brushed. There is a square hardy hole for hardies, 30x30 mm and two pritchel holes at 20 mm and 12 mm. The dimension and spacing of the holes can be adjusted. Or they can be removed altogether.

Dimensions: Face length – 990 mm; face width –150 mm; height of the anvil – 350 mm; base – 440x350 mm. Weight – 210kg.
