According to the Pony Jorgensen website;
Founder Adele Holman, a former professional opera singer, envisioned a company that could grow through product innovation, excellent customer service, and woodworking tools with superior performance. She partnered with Hans Jorgensen, a Danish cabinetmaker, and Marcus Russ, a tool salesman.
The company remained a family-run business until it closed in 2016. The name now appears as part of the Pony Jorgensen operation.

Looks like somebody took a grinder to this one, maybe so it would sit flat on a work table?
I had no idea about Adele Holman; she looks like a serious woman who could put the clamps on a man:

No offense to Adele but she kinda looks like maybe a man in drag?!
