They look like leather working tools to me.
Obviously embalming tools!
>>908547
They look like book binding tools.
Do a google search to narrow down the type.
Im a bookbinder and ive never seen them before

What's that writing on the ~knife?
Thanks all. I'm not really convinced by what google turns up re: leatherworking, but we're getting closer.

'Garantie', meaning 'Guarantee(d)' in Dutch or German. Probably not a brand name.
I'm in the Netherlands. These were among a lot of (otherwise regular) antique tools I bought.
BTW The 6 & 7 markings correspond with the indentation's size in mm.

That's the best you can do dr. Schmeckelstein?
Now that I think of it, maybe they are circumcision tools...

Not sure what the first two are, but the 'V' shaped one is a carving chisel.

Twenty-five Schmeckles? I-I-I-I don't know how much that is, is that a lot? Is it a little?

except there is no v-shape, it is a flat edge with a pointy point thing alongside it
Shoemaker tools. I worked with those for years, made handmade shoes.

Thanks! What is the 6/7 one used for exactly??
>>909327
To push a line into the leather exactly 6 or 7 mm from the edge

Forgot to mention you hold the tool like a stick in your hand with the metal facing down and push it onto the leather.
>>908547
The curved knife could be a really special leather knife.
>>909566
The knife is for cutting the edge of the leather to a 45° angle. Roughly translated: edge knife. I have no idea about the round thing.
