Second looks like a split nut screwdriver.

Second one is a screw starter or remover. Twist the black tip till the flat ridge forms a straight line. Slip a slotted screw onto the ridge and the cap will spring a bit, to hold the screw. You can insert and start the screw from several inches away.
Or, twist the black cap and pull it out, so that the slot engages the pin. The ridge will form a straight line. Push that ridge into a screw (several inches away) and the cap will snap back, allowing the cap to twist, firmly gripping the screw. You can then remove the screw, without dropping it into the abyss!

I have a couple of these in straight and phillips configurations. Used them more than you'd think.

I have seen the second one mostly used for the screws on screw down rotors in distributors back in the day GM comes to mind

What I need is a new, improved abyss recovery tool.

Try one of those telescoping lighted recovery tools available in magnetic or claw versions

No, we're just old and bored. Besides, these were kind of easy. I'm kind of surprised the screwstarter doesn't have a magnet on the other end

2nd tool you'll see in every bike shop when they lace new wheels. They use them on spoke *******.

 

[Rickster]

The older screw starters had a magnet at the top. We used them for starting screws when replacing points and condenser on old cars. If the screw didn't start hopefully you could grab it with the magnet before it spilled into the distributor body. Otherwise you'd stick it to the hood while you waited to use it for the next screw. Several times I opened the hood to check something and found it still dangling there.

after i discovered them it was a "must have" tool for point and condensers on old ford 4cyl industrial engines..

i still see fords from the early-mid 80's and a few mitsubishi gassers from the late 80's once in a while

 

[WittHay]

^ I still have and use the Blue-Point screw starter with the magnet. New Holland used Ford industrial V8's in their equipment up till the mid 80's. Lot of that equipment from the 70's and 80's is still being used today.

I have a couple of those screw starters hanging around somewhere in the garage. Haven't used one in a looong time. Most of the stuff I touch these days seem to be either philips or torx.
