Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities
- ------------------------------------------
     The Company filed a registration statement on Form S-1, Registration No. 
333-25989, which became effective on June 26, 1997 (the "Offering"), with 
respect to the Company's initial public offering of its Class A Common Stock, 
par value $0.01 per share ("Class A Common Stock").  The Offering commenced on 
June 27, 1997 and contemplated the sale of 4,257,000 shares of the Class A 
Common Stock, plus the sale of an additional 640,000 shares of the Class A 
Common Stock pursuant to the exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment 
option.  The initial price to the public of the Class A Common Stock was 
$20.00 per share.  In connection with the Offering, Kennametal surrendered to 
the Company 640,000 shares of Class B Common Stock equal to the number of 
additional shares of Class A Common Stock purchased by the underwriters from 
the Company.  The Offering, including the sale of the over-allotment option 
shares, terminated on July 2, 1997.  Upon termination of the Offering, 
4,897,000 shares of Class A Common Stock were outstanding and Kennametal held 
20,237,000 shares of Class B Common Stock.  

     Managing underwriters for the Offering were Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner 
& Smith Incorporated and Goldman, Sachs & Co.  The number of securities sold 
in the Offering was 4,897,000 shares of the Class A Common Stock at an 
aggregate Offering price of $97,940,000. Underwriting discounts totaled 
$6,733,375, and estimated expenses incurred in connection with the Offering 
were $1,200,000.  Total expenses were approximately $7,933,375.

     The net proceeds from the Offering, after deducting underwriting 
discounts and estimated expenses, were approximately $90.0 million, and: 
(i) were used to repay $20.0 million of indebtedness related to a dividend 
paid to Kennametal on April 28, 1997, (ii) were used to repay amounts due to 
Kennametal totaling approximately $20.0 million related to acquisitions and 
income taxes, (iii) will be used to spend $15-20 million to acquire or 
construct a new Midwest distribution center in the Detroit, Michigan 
metropolitan area, which is expected to be approximately 200,000 to 250,000 
square feet in size and should be in operation by June 30, 1999, (iv) will be 
used to provide working capital for new showrooms and Full Service Supply 
Programs and (v) were used to fund acquisitions.  Pending such uses, the net 
proceeds have been loaned to Kennametal in exchange for a note bearing 
interest at a fluctuating rate equal to Kennametal's short term borrowing 
costs which provides for the repayment of amounts due thereunder on demand by 
the Company.  Kennametal maintains unused lines of credit to enable it to 
repay any portion or all of such loans on demand by the Company.
