Dead on crbnSteeladdict! Much appreciated. There are some diligent researchers on this forum and I truly appreciate the time and willingness to share…
Black Chief was lower grade AF&H's brand (similar quality as Woodslasher) . Maybe it was new brand created after Kelly&AF&H merger. It is also possible it came from Welland Vale or Evansville Tool Works acquisitions.
