Hay Budden anvils are renowned for their functionality and looks. This one is no exception, and is in wonderful condition. The entire top half is tool steel, unlike later anvils. The face is almost dead flat, with only a little roughage on the crisp edges. Ball-bearing drop test indicates a lively top with no dead spots. Great ring and rebound. A super candidate for knife work. ShippingShipping is available for an additional fee. I will box it in ...3/4" plywood for $10. You will then pay the exact shipping charge - I don't charge handling fees. Local pick-up is fine. If you live in the region I will be happy to meet you partway for a minor fee.
