For one Iron Anvil Head, gather 20 Iron Ingots and 40 Charcoal. The most recently updated recipe-specific listing says it unlocks at Blacksmithing level 5 and can be crafted at a Forge, Artisan Forge, or Guild Forge. A separate database lists a Stone Anvil and level 6, so check the recipe panel in your current game build if the recipe is missing.

If you need to make the Iron Ingots
An older Pax Dei Universe calculator, version 4159.111300, traces 20 Iron Ingots to 40 Impure Iron Ore and 80 Charcoal. That is an upstream breakdown from an older calculator snapshot, not a verified current total for the entire crafting chain; check the live recipe chain in-game before gathering.

#1 Best Overall
- Premium Material 22 lbs: This steel anvil is made of drop-forged, high-grade steel, which features high hardness, strength, and durability. Our steel anvil blacksmith has excellent grade material of 55 HRC. The solid base also keeps it sturdy.
- Holes & Horns for Different Uses: Round horn and the flat horn of the anvil blacksmith are used for smoothing, bending, and shaping. And the hardy hole and pritchel hole can show a good performance in accessories’ punching and twisting.
- Polishing Treatment: With fully polished surface area, the blacksmith anvil is corrosion-proof and services long-lasting use through quenching treatment. And the spray coating effectively relieves the oxidation reaction.
- Large Working Area: This anvil metal 22 lbs/10 kg forge comes with a comfortable and wide work surface, giving a large working area. The wide countertop and flat surface provide a better user experience. It can also bear a long time thumping.
- Wide Application: The anvil is ideal for hammering, straightening, and for shaping workpieces. It is widely used by metalworkers and smiths in any metal shop. It is excellent for riveting, flattening, forging, and forming metal.
Which forge crafts it, and what level do I need?
The newer recipe-specific listing names a Forge, Artisan Forge, or Guild Forge and requires Blacksmithing level 5. A Forge listing updated September 11, 2026 also includes Iron Anvil Head among its recipes. Pax Dei gaming.tools’ Forge listing
There is a conflicting database entry: Pax Dei Universe lists Blacksmithing level 6 at a Stone Anvil. That item page was crawled roughly two months before October 8, 2026, and its search result does not expose a game version. Because the recipe-specific listing is dated August 18, 2026 and the Forge listing was updated September 11, 2026, use Forge, Artisan Forge, or Guild Forge and level 5 as the better-supported database answer—but treat the in-game recipe panel as authoritative for the build you are playing.

| Pax Dei gaming.tools recipe-specific page | Updated August 18, 2026; version 47.17.3528+5411.173528 | Forge, Artisan Forge, Guild Forge | Blacksmithing 5 |

Why can’t I find the recipe at my station?
The discrepancy between database listings is a likely reason: one says Stone Anvil and level 6, while the newer recipe-specific page says Forge-family stations and level 5. Check the in-game Blacksmithing recipe panel for the station and unlock requirement shown by your current game build. If you do not meet its listed level or are using a different station, the recipe may not appear where you expect.
The related Iron Ingot listing carries a later game-data version, 48.17.4901+5453.174901, and was updated September 11, 2026. It includes Iron Anvil Head among recipes that consume Iron Ingots, supporting that the component remains represented in that database snapshot. It does not replace the dedicated recipe page for the Iron Anvil Head’s station and unlock details. Pax Dei gaming.tools’ Iron Ingot listing

What is the Iron Anvil Head used for?
It is a crafting component, but database descriptions differ on its final use. The current recipe listing says it is used to make some Artisan Forge Fittings; the older Pax Dei Universe item page says it is used to assemble an iron anvil. The available listings do not establish which description applies in every current build, so confirm the component’s use in the in-game recipe chain before planning around a specific finished item.
