Comments:

during World War II, Nettlefold industries, Parker Kalon Corp, and the US government came up with some kind of contract to produce self-tapping screws and the O.X. punch. this was due for the need to produce aircraft. I'm short on history and am sure Mark Sansbury or other Vintage Machinery historians could tell a better story. The Nettlefold-Parker Kalon in my collection came from England. I believe this is where they were produced with Parker Kalon's blessing. I like the sizes stamped on the top of the punch. There was several different companies producing these for Nettlefold with slightly different markings
