    These belonged to my grandfather. As far as I remember he was a steel worker and a mill. These tools where in a large home made tool box that he carried to and from work. The tools in the box are circa 1947 -1957.

      These look like foundry tools used in sand molds, for casting metals.

      Thanks Rustfarm. I really had no where to start. Thanks to you I have found tons of information on these and other tools in his box.

      Oh, I was able to confirm he began working in the steel mill in 1951 or 1952. Thanks again for helping id these.
