What are these for?

Now some old timers will know right away. I found these in the bottom of a tool bin at an antique store. I was stumped when I first saw them. Have been a handy tool in the shop.
Whatdaya think?

to be fair I am nowhere near the tool aficionado most of the members of this site are SO I had to make an educated guess lol

Looks more like hoof trimming tool . . . but that's a WAG !!

would make a hell of a cotter pin puller

Though I've never seen that exact design before, they look like wheel weight pliers, with a cutting jaw too.

I think it IS a cotter pin puller. And if it won't quite reach, no problem...the pin will have died of fright from seeing that tool coming.

Lol, funny Bruce.
Good eye Bruce & Rookie2.
It is a Cotter Pin Puller, pretty slick tool.

I could have sworn on a bible that my dentist used those on my wisdom teeth ; but then again I was so out of it from the pain medication that he could have had 50 naked dancing girls in his office and I could not even remember it...
