The curved end of the anvils allow for easy removal of hardy tools and all bases have upsetting blocks. The special shape of the slim horn allows for complex but precise work such as bending material at any angle or making rings with a regular diameter. Perun anvils have a heavy and uniquely curved base which is very stable and a completely flat milled bottom which transfers the energy really well while muffling bothersome sounds during forging. They are hardest in the middle with hardness decreasing towards the ends and edges to protect them from chipping and breaking over time. All anvils are checked after hardening and re-hardened if required. All anvils are cast in one piece (no welding) and every casting is checked for possible defects such a cracks and cavities before they are heat treated and machined. These anvils are made from a specially developed alloy steel containing Mn, Mo, Si, Cr, Ni resulting in anvils with a smooth surface on which workpieces easily slide, reducing fatigue (the faces of steel anvils without any alloy additions become rough over time). ** Nowra knives make sturdy custom anvil stands for these (and any other anvil model).Eastern Europe has been producing anvils for a very long time and the Polish Perun anvils are well designed and produced with attention to detail. Residential delivery will be expensive, at least $200 more than picking up from a depot. We can arrange TNT freight to a depot nearest you at a reasonable rate. Note the price is for pickup from Brookvale, NSW 2100. These are cast from premium 6150 steel and should with minimal care be the last anvil you ever buy. This dressing makes the anvil more useful, as forging with the sharp corners tend to pinch the steel and create cracks. And the round horn ground nice and even to remove cast marks and any imperfections from the casting.
