    I'm wanting to get into knife making so I need a good anvil or at least a good chunk of railroad track that I can use as an anvil. If you know of any local scrap yards that might have pieces of rail track please let me know. Willing to buy, trade or barter. Thanks for any info.

    I prefer text @ 850-687-4990 or PM me on this site.

    . If you are serious about buying an anvil there is a antique store in Panama City that has 3 or 4 his price to me seems high but anvils today are of the charts with prices. But that being said he might cut you a deal. You won't find railroad track at most scrap yards because its illegal to sell it you have to find someone that has a piece that they are willing to let go of. The place in PC is

    Good Ole Ridgerunner hooked me up with a piece of railroad track and I turned that thing into a jam up anvil.

    Piece of cake and you can do it too with youtube and a jillion carburandum blades and wearing out a couple cheap grinders!
    Good luck to you! 690A2926-76E8-42E3-92F3-53C29AE71B28.jpg

    That anvil looks great. The ones on eBay are a wreck and shipping is usually as much as the price of the chunck of rail itself... The search goes on. Are there any local scrap yards around that anyone knows about that might have some? Any help would be appreciated.

    I have some rrt that you are welcome to but I live in Atmore so that might be to far for you. I also am considering selling my 296 lb Arm and Hammer anvil and stand, this one has USMC stamped in its side, must have belonged to the Marine Corp. IMG_1062.jpg I am asking $1500.00 for it which is a lot less than its worth.

    I had an ad pop up on fakebook for Air Works Consignment Auction. February 15 they have an auction with a huge collection of blacksmith tools. It was neat looking at the pics but it is in Ohio.
