Shaped, flattened, or worked by striking on an anvil; processed through a metalworking anvil.
From Old Norse 'anfilði' (anvil) + English suffix '-ed' (past participle); describes metal or objects that have been anvil-worked.
Blacksmiths created countless anviled objects for thousands of years, but this specific word became rarer as industrial machines replaced hand-hammering—it's a linguistic fossil of craft labor.
