Bestmore hammer

[Bill MullParticipant @billmull]

Hi All,

At an autojumble yesterday I bought a couple of hammers.A 2lb ball pein and a 2lb lump hammer, they looked like new old stock but have a quality feel to them and have " Bestmore Made in England" stamped into the head.

A sticker on the handle says "Bestmore Betex Hednesford England"

I m just curious if anyone knows does the company still exist?

A google trawl didnt reveal much.

Liam,

'Bestmore Drop Forgings' gets a mention here

'Bestmore Industrial Estate' shows on Google Maps

… Looks like they're long-gone.
