Looks decent for a small anvil. It was purchased for some jewelry making and seems to get the job done. However, it looks as though the tip of the anvil is asymmetrical, maybe this is on purpose but I'm not very experienced with anvils in general. The shiny surface also mars and scratches fairly easily, it was primarily used with either a small brass hammer head or nylon hammer head on steel wire.

5.0 out of 5 stars Just What I Have Been Looking For
Reviewed in the United States on March 20, 2013
Verified Purchase
I just received this anvil a couple of days ago and have already used it three times. Believe it or not, this item is just
what it says it is. It says that it is steel, and my friends it is STEEL, and a very high quality steel. It's not chromed
over or painted. It is a plain " made to use " steel anvil. This anvil is very versatile. It can be used as a jeweler's
anvil for delicate work. It can stand up to more tougher jobs, requiring harder striking with a heaver hammer.

I have used this anvil to tighten the scales (handles) on a straight razor, with a jeweler's chasing hammer. However,
this anvil would do well with a heavier hammer for less delicate tasks. I am just amazed at the quality of this product.
The seller, did not try to make a "purse out of a sows ear". This item looks exactly and pictured, and performs as it
should. The seller didn't waste any time getting the order shipped either. I highly recommend this product, for its quality
and versatility.............

4.0 out of 5 stars Handy anvil
Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2017

Nicely polished, good looking, about the proper size and appears to be well made, has no mounting holes, have not had time to test if it will hold up to hammer strikes yet. Will revisit if I change my mind on mounting holes...On the other hand the bottom is finished as well as the top and can be used if that suits the need.

5.0 out of 5 stars A hardened steel tool like the ball peen I use will leave an indentation ...
Reviewed in the United States on December 5, 2016
Verified Purchase
Arrived promptly and as pictured. It is steel, not hardened though. A hardened steel tool like the ball peen I use will leave an indentation on the flat surfaces. This is a straight up WYSIWYG with accurate weight and size. Now, I found out the hard way that it's too small to kill that pesky roadrunner, but it sure left a goose-egg on my noggin! Looking for a bigger anvil now on the Acme website...
