The round ones with the knurling and marked Germany look like pin vises.

The one with the plastic cover looks like it could be a manual impact.

The "Star" tool looks like a drill handle. You hold these in your hand and tap, tap, tap the back end with a hammer. These were often used with a star bit for drilling masonry and stone for anchors.

Here's a pick of one with a bit inserted (from https://necaibewchicago.com/video_timeline/tools29.htm)

I think yours is newer than the one pictured. I remember seeing some like yours in the 1980s.

The black handled tool is for setting concrete pins.

The collet tool has the logo for Friedrich **** which is a german file manufacturer.
Im guessing those are vintage needle file handles.
I actually have a file or two made by them.
This is the modern version:
