HAMMOND. He marked the tools that were made in his factory as C. HAMMOND'S until sometime around the turn of the century; perhaps until the teens. After that some tools were marked C. HAMMOND & SON, while some were identified as C. HAMMOND Brand. Quite possibly those marked C. HAMMOND'S were made before the company name was changed and the “& SON” was added. In addition to broad axes, boy’s axes and lighter weight utility axes, Hammond made a wide variety of hatchets. The company also made a variety of hammers and some other edge tools, including cleavers. Hammond is reputed to have made a patented cleaver dated 1869 but the specifics of the actual patent are unknown. Perhaps the date cited was erroneous or incorrect. Another possibility is that the patent was actually awarded to someone else and Hammond purchased it or otherwise became the actual manufacturer. References indicate that C. Hammond & Son operated a manufactory around 1917 in Ogontz, a suburb of Philadelphia. Earlier markings included Philadelphia as their location. The company was listed as being located in Elkins Park, Pennsylvania around 1920. Other references used with the OGONTZ TOOL CO. brand included the location CHELTENHAM. The company also used a brand TACONY and TACONY WORKS for a second line of tools. Ogontz, Tacony and Cheltenham were all communities located comparatively close to Philadelphia. They all eventually became part of the city suburbs. -- Source: Yesteryears Tools website, Tom Lamond. Firmly readable, ideal for reference and collecting. Very nice. Clean Text. Very Good condition.
