After combing through rusty piles of unloved apparatuses from years past, in shops dedicated to all things decrepit and threadbare, I'll post here the gems I unearth for resurrection and reinstatement. Brought back from their long slumber just in time before succumbing irrevocably to the inexorable invasion from their natural enemies: air and water.
Third installment of unidentified things. Expand my knowledge, if you can and would like to.
UPDATE: Kind reader James sent this:
Possible answers to unknown3 (#1 farrier rasp), (#3 looks like a farrier’s tool for scrapping under the hoof), (#8 it looks like a flint striker), (#10 handle for inspection mirror/retrieving tool “magnet” generally used in automotive).
Thanks, James!

I don't know how to explain all the moving parts on this thing. My guess is that it's not a standalone thing, that it fits into something else.
