2893 Spark Plug Wrench?
Tool Mystery looks like a rubber stitcher to me. Looks like what they use
at my work to stitch 2 sheets of rubber together to form continuous rubber
sheets and strips.

2896 Pawl. Ok, I realize this answer isn't particularly helpful. Sorry.
2898 Sure looks like a harpoon head.

#2897 Looks like it would be handy for holding a vehicle tire open to
assist in repairing it from the inside, i.e. to help fix a flat.

I saw some similar-featured tools on Google searching "tire spreader tool".

For "Tool Mysteries":
2624 looks like a "Strike Plate" for something like a jail cell door,
openable from the outside using the handle.

> 2893 Lug Wrench
I thought that but a 6" long lug wrench with no leverage lead me to go
back to my original thought of a spark plug wrench.

O.K. As usual, posting from rec.crafts.metalworking.
2893) Looks like a compact lug-nut wrench for storing in a car with
the jack and the spare tire. It might also fit the jack for
cranking up (and down) the car.
2894) This looks like something for joining two nearly parallel
surfaces with slots which include something for the hooks to
grab. It looks to me as though when you tighten the wing nut,
the two hooks are pulled together. to grip the object surfaces
firmly to the 'T' pieces.
2895) Some kind of storage container. The lid fits into the open top
and turning the propeller bar causes the four diagonal bars to
extend through the corner slots, and then the four thumbscrews
clamp the lid firmly to the inner container. Since it is a
double-walled container, it suggest some degree of thermal
insulation between the inside and the outside.
2896) Part of a very simple latch -- but not very strong.
2897) Looks like a tool for rotating a fairly large diameter ring,
but not capable of producing much torque.
2898) That looks like the business end of a harpoon -- as used in
whale harvesting way back when. Back when it was a closer to
even game as to who would win.
It looks like there is a single rivet which would allow the head
to rotate and lock in the wound in the whale, so it would not
pull out easily.
There should be a long heavy wooden handle back some distance
along the fairly small diameter shank.
Now to see what others have suggested.
Enjoy,
DoN.
