Rbi Hawk Woodworking Tools

[derk]

Does anyone know what has happened to RBI & HAWK WOODWORKING TOOL
CO.?? Did they just disappear into the sunset, file bankruptcy, or what?
Is there a contact person, or contact number to reach someone, in the event there is any left over machines or tools that have to be disposed of??
Are there any rumors of any other company taking them over, or manufacturing some of their items at some future date?? I was going to order a ROUTERSHOP, but, POOF, they were gone!!!

It has been reported, here on the forum, that RBI Hawk has permanently closed their doors. I'll see if I can find that thread and link it here later.
