I have a hex  socket L handle marked TOMAHAWK in bold letters.  Who used this logo?

Walden tool co. Worcestor, Massachusetts. 

sold around early 1920's for working on model-T Fords.

late 1900's & early 1920's  Walden & Mossberg were heavy on making tools
for the Fords,  biggest reason was they sold more Fords than other makers
in that period.

Charles Garrett;

  after I signed off, I started thinking about your question again,  my 1st answer refers to
  the Walden's Tomahawk T-socket wrench with 3 built on sockets.

  going back and rereading your question, L-handle.

  in a 1952 ad, they show 2 or 3 sets of socket sets with the hex, L shaped handle.

  they registered the Tomahawk trademark for some of their tools.

  I hope that this helps.    Frank
