   Dennis- I remember reading in one of these recent threads about the guy who developed the original Hart- he went out on his own and has started a new company. I think even the man himself took part in the dicussion. That discussion also talks about the current status of Hart hammers. Do a search here and you'll probably find it- or maybe someone with more brain cells left can remember more specifics. Duh.

   *That's funny. Just today i ran across one of our framers in the shop. He said to me "look at this" he was holding a framing hammer with a broken off claw. I asked him what he did to that poor hammer and he said "I was pulling a nail out" I asked him if he had bought the hammer at wal-mart and he showed me the label. It was a Hart, which he had purchased the previous day. Go figure.
