If he is a neighbor, maybe the owner can ask the seller of this tool what
his father did for a living.

Librarian's cosh, for when they won't "Shush!".
Soft leather covering so it's pretty quiet when you use it.

It's leather, so a form of paper weight is correct since it was sold as a
book weight.

It's a wrench but not for valve stems.

I'm guessing that this is a different name for a flaring tool, if so then
it's correct.

All correct. Yes, a teacher took one of these onto a plane, they grilled,
hand-cuffed and put her into a police holding cell at the airport. Also
threatened jail and a huge fine for taking a weapon onto an airplane.

224 is a snap link used for joining sections of chain.
226 is a book weight. It's a leather strap with shot sewn into each
end, and is laid across the open pages of a big book to hold them
flat. It can also be used as a sap, if you're so inclined.
229 looks like a link of a chainsaw chain.

They could be used for this but that's not what they're marked.

Correct, it's called a book weight.
Number 218 is a watch repair instrument called a "Truing Caliper". It
is used to flatten the Balance Wheel in a watch. (The old non-electric
type.) Occasionally the wheel distorts when the Staff, the center
shaft, is riveted in place. By the way, a tool usualy found in the
same drawer is the "Poising Tool". This device allows the balance
wheel to turn freely on its staff so that weight can be added or
removed to balance the wheel. Kind of like balancing an auto tire.
I spent many an hour in my youth using both tools at the bench in my
fathers watch repair shop.

Thanks for the info, I don't have a poising tool, I'll have to keep an eye
out for one.

I didn't say I was amused, I said I liked the answer. It
did puzzle me that it was double ended, but there could be a
reason for that. I think someone designed a book holder
after a sap. Possibly a double purpose item to provide some
protection during trips to the library. I use a variety of
things to hold my books open; wonder if I could sell them as
"book weights?"
