New Tools

[Radthalan]

Hi everyone. Last week I was given a bag of scraps, from my mom's cousin. Inside the bag was three tools. I was told that this bag was in storage for 20 or more years, so I appreciate how old these are. Now I know I have a lacing chisel, (still very sharp), an embossing tool with an angled scribe, and what looks like a petal lifter. But I don't know what is on the other end of the petal lifter. I looked around but could not find anything. Has anyone ever seen a leather tool like this one?

Thanks in advance

The long thin tools are modelling tools, I think for clay, but they show up in leather tool collections a fair bit.

The other tool looks like a thonging chisel to me.

There was a modeling tool with an edge beveller on one end, but I think it was more V shaped.

Someone will have an old catalog and chime in.

Good luck,

Kevin

can't tell from the picture would need a shot of the underside, but it appears to be either an edge beveler or a V gouge.

The underside looks just like the top side. There is no blade or sharp edge to speak of. At first thought it was edge tool too, or a tool that would hold a very small overstitch wheel, or a means for marking spacing on leather like a wing divider. While cleaning up the tools I did find a mfg name on it. But its really worn out and hard to read.

Thank you everyone for all your input and ideas.
