Easiest upgrade for any anvil -- weld 1\2' - 1' steel plate on top.

If the top would be hardened there would be lots of sparks. If there is little sparks it means it's probebly cast iron.
Harbor freight is cast iron so its not really suiteble for forging. Cast iron is too soft and it can break.
Blacksmiths call something like that from HF an ASO (anvil shaped object).

The Essential Craftsman channel has some nice anvil video's.

The cast gray iron anvil will dent and it is garbage for a true blacksmith or bladesmith. For a hobby tinkerer it will work for the whole 2 hours of metal smashing they will do before they get a blister and go back to typing on the computer.
