The first one (1148)is easy. It's an electrical detonator for a Claymore antipersonnel mine. The fourth one (1151) looks like a scale for weighing fish.
I think 1151 is a Newton meter, used to measure the amount of force required to pull an object along.

Harley's right on the Claymore detonator- haven't seen one in twenty years or more, but it's something you don't forget. Not sure on the in-between items, but I believe the last one to be a high-end saw set. One that would be used by a very sophisticated saw-sharpener.

1150 appears to be a lamp, but I can't think of what particular use the ring-shaped burner would be for. Heating a cylindrical object evenly?

1149: is a jigsaw. The complicated chain mechanism means that you can rotatate the blade relative to the frame and both endes are automaticly aligned, instead of having to manually realign them.
1150: For starting coal furnaces/boilers?

1150. 6" long, there are some small holes in the tubing on the right: [Image] For more guesses on this one take a look at Neatorama.

1152. 15" long: [Image]
The two pieces of wood seen below on the base are covered with leather: [Image]
Pivoting the handle brings down a similar part from the top: [Image]
1153. 6-1/2" long, submitted by a visitor: [Image] Larger image Text on this tool reads "MARKF HIRSCH". The jaws can only be opened about 1/16", and are fully open in the photo.
