Couple of new tools. I dunno...


Recommended Posts

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.

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... 😁
