    One item looks like a scraper of some sort. The next has a knife edge on the rounded side which is slightly offset from the main part of the blade that goes into the handle. The third item with the tear drop head also appears to be some kind of scraper.

      The left-hand one looks like a dough scraper - an antique kitchen tool - for scraping dough out of the box it was placed in to rise. The right-hand one is a general purpose paint scraper for moldings - turn it to whatever part of the blade fits the curve being scraped. No ideas on the center one.

      I agree with Ron. You can still buy that paint scraper.

      The center one may be a pointers tool, for glazing window panes.
