Does anyone know what these are? I got them in an auction box with some violin and other random stuff. I cannot find any marks on them besides the 5 or 6 slashes that all seem to be in the same place on the different shanks. Theyre heavy. Please help me figure this out!

Patternmaker's filleting tools. Used with wax or other materials inside wooden patterns to produce rounded edges on casting.

Very good! I'd have never guessed that, but it makes perfect sense. I take it the radius of each end is different, like a box wrench? Can't quite tell from the pix.

whenever I get to 100 posts I may throw them on classifieds if anyone is interested, I really have no use for them.

I work in health care, so I can't help myself sometimes..........
Actually that may be a good tool for those over 35. At 50 they recommend a colonoscopy. Utilizing those tools before may make it possible while playing ping-pong :confused:.
Does Strap-On make them :wtf:
