Blacksmith Tools

I have my blacksmith tools in a museum in Fairview, Utah. My tools include, a forge to heat metal. You burn coal in the forge and heat the metal. I have a power hammer, tap and die, hammers, pliers, and an anvil. I took a blacksmith course at the trade school, and I was able to acquire my teacher’s anvil. An anvil is the main item used by a blacksmith. My anvil is a dud. It doesn't ring when you hit it. The teacher at the vocational school I attended sold it to me. Anvils are suppose to ring when you hit them with a hammer.
