One of the Hardware dealers magazines had a section on Worth tools, so I suspect it was a line available to hardware stores in general...
(Couldn't read it, google's silly snippit view)

Strange how we havn't seen this mark in years, then it shows up on multiple tools...
Just a weathered light rust/WD40 mix patina.

PS&W were good tools.  Were the Worth tools just re-labeled, or a lower quality?
