Couple of new tools. I dunno...

[way2wyrd]

I bought a set of tools pretty much just for a burnisher. I got some other tools as well with some nice spade drills.   

Can we identify these. Maybe a dapping tool, peralage tool, small hamster spike and a nose picking tool.

Ok so i believe the box of cutters are rose cutters / pivot cutters.  Im not sure how they were used.

The stick has walsco 2512 on it but i cant find a ref or anything similar.

No idea yet on the others

Ok i am 100% sure that the cutters are under cutters for balance screws. 

Still working on the others. Maybe a case knife on the detached blade

Can't imagine what the first two tools are used for.

I think the last tool is a clock pivot positioner.

The first two tools seem like burnishers to me. For polishing pocket watch cases for example. They'd also be used for stone setting, but it's good to have different shapes for different jobs.

I've added pics from Brittens Watch and clockmakers handbook and from Petzolds Das Handwerk des Uhrgehäusemachers. They depict the use for dent removal. Also good to tighten the snap of a case back or glass setting. 

The last tool looks like a knitting hook, good for the nerves when a watch job goes a bad way...
