Picked up an old 8 LB splitter
Makers Mark is Horseshoe with A in the center.
Any Ideas

Sounds like Atha Tool Co. of Newark, NJ

I Believe that's the one. The mark on the one I have the Horseshoe and A has
The ATHA under it . I think it maybe an older mark
Thank You for the input. Really appreciate it ~!

Could be Atha or Stanley. Atha brand was used for a long period after takeover by Stanley
