Good Morning all,
#2462 looks like a nutcracker to me
#2463 a fuse for a bulb or a tool to screw into a bulb outlet,
incl. a switch or fuse resetter.
#2465 Ships exhaust outlet system, possibly from the Costa Cordalis?

Oh, that restores my long lost memory. The detector has internal battery,
and charges itself when the light is on.

6 big pipes: one for each pair of cylinders.
The smaller pipes: exhausts for auxiliary engines. For power and whatnot
while not underway.

Have a pleasant Terran revolution.
2461, some kind of mechanical separator. But what?
2462, probably a nut cracker for walnuts.
2463, I looked at this and said "wow, that's familiar". someone else
recognized it as a smoke detector.
2464, Seems to be a "do all" kitchen gadget. I recognize can opener, and
bottle opener, with that metal piece that goes on the end of the meat
cleaver.
2465, looks like a tube type radio. The mesh dome looks a little like the
top of an AC outdoor unit.
2466, never seen one of these.

It looks like a clip or buckle for banding strap.

It's part of the nylon strapping used to tie down stuff to
pallets.

2465 WK is right, this is the funnel of the Costa Concordia...
But, I have another follow up puzzle...
I see 6 large vents and 4 smaller ones. The ship is powered by one
humongous Wartsila 12-cylinder 2-stroke diesel engine.
Why so many large vents? I'd expect a large vent for the engine and a
few smaller ones for the auxiliary engines and HVAC.
Anyone know what all the pipes do?

Good answer, tire spreader is correct, I checked the US and British patents
for the number on it but neither was a match, if anyone has an idea on how
to find the patent please let me know.

I forgot to mention it but just added to my site that it has 14 inch
increments on the outside and 14 cm on the inside.
Still not sure about the rule but the rest of them have been correctly
identified this week, the answers can be seen here:

Thanks for the link, I'll pass it on to the person who sent the photo. Also
thanks to Larry and F Murtz, this answer looks like it's correct.

2461. I would guess some type of split ring pliers.
2462. Nut cracker
2463. For shorter people, gets the bulb a bit closer to the ground.
2464. this is what the leatherman looked like previous to the current
design.
2465. Smoke stack for a ship.
2466. I'm going to guess some type of rule gauge to check pitch

Posting from rec.crafts.metalworking as always.
2461) Designed to force two objects apart and hold them separated.
Since the cradles are not pivoted, it suggests that the two
objects are round rods. Otherwise, two square objects, such as
2x2" wood or steel bars.
2462) Looks like something designed to break small objects (glass rods,
pills, etc) and capture the parts or debris.
2463) Likely to automatically turn on the installed light when the
daylight fades below a level preset by the red knob.
2464) Well ... the major part is a cleaver.
At least one part (that labeled '5' in the second photo) is
designed as a can opener.
'6' will turn a round object in a single direction, and slip in
the other.
'4' is likely a bottle opener for soda and beer bottles.
'3' and '2' look like meat tenderizers.
I would like to see the end view of the part labeled '1'.
Without that I can't guess that part.
2465) This is the top view of one of the funnels of the cruise ship
which recently took over the news reports by running into a rock
and killing several passengers.
2466) Given the sliding piece, and the hinge, it could be used to set
angles (similar to a sine bar, but less accurate) if the height
of the vertical part is right.
Do any of the scales match inch or metric lengths?
Now to post (rather late, thanks to a visitor), and then see
what others have suggested.
Enjoy,
DoN.

AT a guess, one large exhaust for each pair of cylinders, and
the fours somewhat smaller ones are for intake air, to keep passengers
from falling in or blocking the intakes.
Enjoy,
DoN.
