Blount eventually acquired / purchased: Carlton, Windsor, Sandvik, KOX, ICS, and a few other saw chain brands.

They also private labeled a number of chains for OEM saw manufacturers.

I believe Blount bought out what forestry line of product Sandvik marketed with Windsor.
Sandvik earlier successfully sued Windsor over a patent and took over the company.
 But if my memory is correct Sandvik sold out their share of Windsor to Blount.
Sandvik is still heavily involved in the hard rock mining industry up here in my area.
Making a living with a saw since age 16.
