Hammer Brand was originally a brand of New York Knife Co. It was their top of the line series. NYK went out of business in 1931 according to Goins. Shortly Imperial got the rights to the name and began using it on their shell handled knives in the mid 1930s.

It sounds like your knife was one made by Imperial.
