Anvils are required to build a metalsmith's forge. They are a vital item if your fortress intends to do any metalworking whatsoever.

Anvil Properties

Anvils may be made of iron, steel or adamantine. The material used does not seem to affect the performance of the forge. Neither does the anvil's quality, although anvils have a high base cost, so quality greatly increases their value. Smithing an anvil requires three bars of metal.

Acquiring an Anvil

You may bring an anvil with you on embark, at the cost of 1000 points. However, some players choose to forego this and instead spend the points for other purposes. An anvil will usually be available for purchase from the dwarven caravan in the first autumn, but it is not known whether the presence of an anvil is guaranteed.
