What is this tool? And how is it used?

[Tom26]

I recently acquired these two tools along with some others.

One tool (tool No. 1) appears to be some sort of edge skiver. It has a a smooth face very sharp blade. There is a edge guide on one side. 
 

Tool No. 2 has a corrugated kind of face and and edge guide. I have know idea what it is or how to use.

Please help

Those are cobbler tools.  The skiver-like tool is essentially a plane, sometimes called a heel shave (or some variation thereof) - It's for shaping the edge of the leather sole.   The other tool - the name escapes me - the wheel version is called a fudge wheel -  but it's pretty much for putting that fancy corrugated pattern on the outside top of the sole/welt.

I'm not a cobbler, so forgive me if I don't have the names right!   LOL.    Maybe somebody will come along that can help me out on that and correct as needed.

I think they call it fudging, there are also wheels that do this.

Thank you.  I was thinking maybe shoes. Was going to look at some shoe building references. I have some interest in this so cool to find the tools.

Found out the second tool is called a seat breaker. It’s used while installing a heel.
