During the 1950s and 1960s, this company made jointer and planer knife grinders. The rights to these grinders now belongs to Woodworkers Tool Works.

Information Sources

  • A search for patents granted or assigned to "Foster" failed to turn up any knife grinders. Howeever, Ben Pestrue provided a patent number listed on his planer knife grinder. See the Patents tab on this page.
  • A Photo Index entry from Doug Westlind reports that literature accompanying a jointer knife grinder was dated April 30, 1963.
