I have the 66 pound one. I've noticed the horn is much better on the 66. Overall I've really enjoyed it. Don't have complaints really. The pritchel hole was weird at first, but it's easily solved by just making a bolster plate with a hole in it.
I have 3 anvils some random cast steel 50 kg local hardware store 10 kg and a vevor 20 kg as a smith you’ll need a welder as well to make carts for your tools.
if you can do a hot cut easily on the edge you need to radius a bit more. They're certainly too sharp out of the box. It's fine to keep some of it sharp, i have 3 different radii on mine.
Its been working out for me very well so far. It is a little softer than a drop forged one, so I have made some dents with errant hammer blows. While I prefer to buy local and domestic products, this is great for learning on.
They make some pretty good stuff but usually people don't want to spend the money. I have one of these and have just abused it to save my good Peter Wright and it has held up far beyond my expectations.
I love mine had it for a yeah use a 3lb hammer mostly and have worked on metal 1.5in thick with a striker no issues

They are made in the Czech Republic last I've heard

I thought they were Czech made?
If that Anvil had feelings you'd be doing such a good job with that hole! You look like you have a lot of experience, how do you practice?
Those anvils are just fine just because something is made in china does not mean that it is bad at all
