388 - Set of tools to pierce the end of dynamite sticks to insert blastic caps. Couple the multiple pieces to open a hole that matches the size of the blasting cap. Made of brass to be non-sparking.

>393. ...to make chopped liver.

Thanks for the comment, I'm guessing this is a multi purpose knife, but that's one possible use for it.

>388. some kind of feeler guage set
>390. a "stone" filter, usually for fuel

Both incorrect.

>392. Tool used for hold down springs in automotive drum brake shoe applications.

I think this is right.

>The knife is called an ulu.

Thanks, or possibly a mezzaluna knife.

>392. Battery terminal cleaner

Nope

>393. Vegetable chopper used in wooden bowl.

Another possible use...

>388 - Set of tools to pierce the end of dynamite sticks to insert blastic caps...

Nope, found out that these are scratch test needles for testing gold, as seen on this link:
