Millers Falls Co. is a tool manufacturing company originally based in Millers Falls, Massachusetts.

It was established in Greenfield, Massachusetts in 1868 as Gunn & Amidon[1] by Levi J. Gunn and Charles H. Amidon.[2] Gunn and Amidon, along with a third partner, Henry L. Pratt built a factory in the north of Greenfield.[1] After the Greenfield factory burned down, the company was reorganized as the Millers Falls Manufacturing Co.[1] It merged with Backus Vise Co. in 1872 to form Millers Falls Co..[3]

In 1931 Millers Falls tools purchased the majority of the shares of Goodell-Pratt tools and merged with that manufacturer in 1932.[4]

In 1962 the company was acquired by Ingersoll Rand.[5]

In 1982, Ingersoll Rand sold the Millers Falls business to the newly created Millers Falls Tool Co. The company was headquartered in Alpha, New Jersey.[6] Since 2002 the company trademark has belonged to Hangzhou Great Star Industrial, of Hangzhou, China.
