Anvil Brand x Werkman Hoofcare!
Now in stock! Our exclusive European and UK Partnership for the AB/JHM Anvils line!

With an impressive legacy spanning 56 years, Anvil Brand has been at the heart of the farrier, blacksmith, and anvil communities – crafting tools that combine tradition with cutting-edge innovation. Recognizing the unique needs of their customers, they began manufacturing their own exclusive lines of anvils, including the renowned Anvil Brand Anvils and JHM Anvils, delivering unmatched quality and value.

The journey of each anvil is a testament to precision and excellence. It all begins in a state-of-the-art foundry in Texas USA, where advanced pouring techniques ensure flawless construction. From there, the anvils travel to Illinois, where skilled craftsmen add the finishing touches—machining, painting, and perfecting each piece. Finally, these masterpieces make their way to Werkman Hoofcare, ready to serve as a cornerstone of any farrier’s toolkit.

At Werkman Hoofcare, we’re dedicated to offering farriers since 1909 a complete package of our premium-quality horseshoes, tools and hoofcare essentials. And now, we’re thrilled to bring the craftsmanship of Anvil Brand to farriers across Europe and the UK! Anvils that stand the test of time are now available exclusively through Werkman Hoofcare, bringing the best of American manufacturing straight to your forge. From our house to yours – let’s shape the future of farriery together!
