   Bluegrass was a house brand for Belknap Hardware, like Craftsman is for Sears.

   Belknap Hardware was a hardware distributor in Lousiville, KY. I forgot how many states they covered, but probably about 1/4 - 1/3 the states centered around KY.

   At the time they covered anything and everything that a small town store would sell except for pershables. I know that they carpet and furniture. And I think possibly caskets.

   Anyway they have been out of business for 20 years.

   thanks- I googled "Bluegrass hammers", but got nothing on hammers.

   I've been wondering what all the hubbub was about.
