Channellock Pliers - Company History & Lore
This video chronicles the history of Channellock. From their beginnings in
George DeArments blacksmith shop, to the Champion-DeArment era and the
introduction of the "tongue in groove" Channellock pliers in 1932,
Channellock is one of the oldest family run tool companies in America, still
making tools in the same factory they moved into in 1923.
