I have used several of these things like the balance beam scales. Old saying" Use a brush to clean a comb and use a comb to clean a brush". Damn....I'm getting old.
My father was in Burma during the war, he was part of a small unit of Americans assigned to the Chinese army running supplies into the jungles along very rough roads and also air dropping bags of rice into the jungle for the soldiers fighting.
The Leather Hole punch one is still in use today in my craft as a Boilermaker. I mostly work in Coal, Natural Gas, and Nuclear Powerhouses where we still use them when we make gaskets on Hatchways to get inside SCR’s, and Bag Houses. The Hole Punches are use so that the Bolts can go through the gasket material
I have a whole set of Osborne tools. The cheapos don't even come close. Even Tandy's newer tools have the chrome falling of them. My ancient Tandy's still never fail. Item # 3:22 is a sliding scale. I have a nearly identical one.
Like others here I have used the hole punch for gasket making, I have a steelyard like the one with three hooks and I have a planter similar to the potato planter so three today.

Last one may be for a key to a locker somewhere like a train station. Missing the keyring and key of course.
The last item looks like a dog registration tag
That was my first thought.
Anyone with a dog will recognize that as a rabies tag.
I have the Stanley hairbrush and comb cleaner. I also occasionally use it as a back scratcher. 😁
Recognized the WWI Victory Medal…. I have my grandfathers…….
I got the leather punch and the Balance Beam Scales. I have a Victory Medal from my Great Uncle, so knew that one too. WOW, got the Curry Comb too !
I recognized the steelyard scale before I even heard the description, I have a very similar one myself.
Same here. First thought on sight was "yep, just like mine."
I got two in this one, the balance scale and the comb/brush cleaner.
Same 2 I got!
Wow I got 4 on this one !
Yahoo a personal best!!
Hole punch, Beam scale, Curry comb, Potato planter!
@@mikek306 congratulations!
I got the same 4.
@@tinknal6449 Great minds think alike? LOL
@@mikek306 I think being a farm boy helps.
@@tinknal6449 Yup
I think that might be a power pole tag from Duke Power Co.
My first thought was miners tag, to see who's down.

The last one is a credit charge coin issued by department store and was used similarly as modren credit card are today.
It's a department store "charge coin". look it up.
I got the curry brush right away
Charge coin, early credit token before credit cards.
I’ve seen this on another channel. You did too, didn’t you? ;)
Final item is an admission token to one of Diddy's freak offs.
And how would you know? BUSTED!
@@MileyonDisney I was only a judge...honest!
I got two, the leather hole punch and the scale.
last one looks like a dog's rabies tag
❤
The last one is most likely an identiving coin of a cloakroom.
Do you mean identifying? Personally i was thinking it may be for a key to a locker somewhere like a train station.
@@UrBasicGuy I did mean identifying and you are probably right about the keys.
Is the last one an insurance token for someone's house?
Or maybe a token that they’re paid up with the fire department?
Last item might be a tool crib chip
Tool tag or lockbox/mail key
👁👁 Always a pleasure
