LATROBE, PENNSYLVANIA, OCTOBER 31, 1997 - Kennametal Inc. (NYSE:KMT) announced
today that the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust

pre-merger notification with the FCO in the near future, and expects to proceed
with its tender offer and acquisition of Greenfield following the expiration of
