I have another stiddy for sale. This one is made from D-2 and the anvil surface has been flame hardened. I dont know the exact RC hardness (lack of hardness tester) but I hit it several times with a 16oz. ball peen and it had no damage. There was an issue with this stiddy when I first made it, being the holes in the base were not exactly centered and when bolted together the anvil was on a small angle compared to the base (wasn't parallel). But since, I have made a new base and everything is as it should be. The base is from mild steel (3" by 5"). Overall height is 2 1/2". Anvil is 1 5/8" wide and 3" long. The horn is 1 5/8" by 1" long. The base is attached to the anvil by 2 10mm flat head bolts. The horn and anvil are surface ground. The stiddy is painted with a brown hammertone paint. PM me with any questions. Asking $140, shipped.
