Just cannot find the make of these chisels… would anyone know?
I’ve posted a pic of the label, and there are the initials A.C.B. stamped on all the chisels of this set.
Thank you… I appreciate it

Looks like a nice set.
Thanks… the chisels and box are in pretty good shape… Do you recognize the label?
It's crazy we can't figure it out. Looks like under the label says H. Ash...?
Yes it’s like that… and then there’s “… own’s Guarantee”
Do you think it could say Ash Handles?
But then there’s the period (.)
I believe it says "Diamond A Brand Ashdown's Guarantee"
You are the proud owner of a set of chisels sold by the "Merchant Prince of Winnipeg," James Henry Ashdown.
I believe he is correct. I thought it said diamond brands..
"Throughout the years, Ashdown's Warehouse supplied every conceivable kind of merchandise, including its own "Diamond A Brand" goods."
Thankyou very much guys... I appreciate your help and experience in determining the origin of these beautiful chisels.
I am grateful...
