Jeremy Blohm 385 Posted June 13, 2019 (edited) I bought these anvils from Emerald Koch of Blacksmithparadise.com . The big german double horn is mine and the german hornless church window is a gift for a friend of mine that has done a lot for me. They are coming from Austria to be shipped to Chicago Illinois. 426 lbs 280 lbs I will try to get more pictures but it's kinda a pain to get the pictures to download properly.

Matthew Stone 4 Posted June 14, 2019 You sir have acquired one of my dream items with that double horn. You have excellent taste. A gentleman not to far from me has a 350# soderfors which I drool over as well. But I'm still happy with my kohlswa for now. Congratulations. It's a beautiful chunk of steel. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeremy Blohm 385 Posted June 15, 2019 I cant wait to put my hands on this thing. I just wanna tap it with a hammer and listen to it sing!! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeremy Blohm 385 Posted August 6, 2019 (edited) I decided if im going to pay $500 flat rate shipping for 1000 lbs I'm going to make it worth it. so I bought these also. Note: I changed the title of the thread so it's easy for people to find when looking for info on buying from Emerald.

Bob Ouellette 4 Posted August 6, 2019 I'm super jealous of that double horn anvil! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeremy Blohm 385 Posted October 18, 2019 I got the call yesterday that my anvils have arrived in Chicago. Hopefully Monday or Tuesday I will go pick them up!!! Also there is no customs duties to pay on antique anvils so the only additional cost was the customs broker and that totaled $241 USD. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Will Wilcox 232 Posted October 18, 2019 Alright Jeremy... Between that power hammer, the double horn, and the swage block.... I mean, I can only handle so much jealousy here man!!! You have an excellent taste for excellent things. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jeremy Blohm 385 Posted October 18, 2019 Thanks guys. I've made a lot of sacrifices to get these things. Like not fixing the rear main seal on my truck so me and the wife only have one vehicle at the moment but I stay home and tinker around anyway so I really don't need my truck up and running. Plus I save on insurance so that helps the pocket book. and the fact it only gets 8 mpg so not driving it saves me big time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brian Dougherty 696 Posted October 18, 2019 What that old joke about having to clean out your forge so you can remount the rear brake drum to the family car to drive to town? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jeremy Blohm 385 Posted October 24, 2019 I just made it home after a very long day of driving with my anvils!!! This double horn is a brute. It's still wrapped in plastic but I can see both tips poking out. Tomorrow I will unwrap them and get a better look and post a few pictures! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don Rooker 13 Posted October 29, 2019 Personally I prefer a much smaller anvil with a broken horn. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
