O.K. Posting from rec.crafts.metalworking -- though I'm not to
sure about a lot of these.

321) At a guess, it is some kind of decorative puzzle. There would
appear to be at least one split in the lower piece, and probably
several, to allow each of those dovetails to slide apart.

322) Some kind of spinner -- the wedge slides into something, and
the handle allows the device to be used as a crank.

323) Some kind of torch head. I suspect that the outer holes pass fuel
(e.g. Acetylene) and the inner hole passes oxygen, to make a
cutting torch. The two steps at the other end connect to
concentric sources for the two gasses.

At a guess, this has never been used, as it shows no
discoloration from heat.

324) With no scale, I think that it is either part of a stick of
staples, or part of a contour gauge (the latter I consider
unlikely, because the ends are too neatly lined up.)

325) This looks like a gripper for large flat bottle lids, to grip
them so they can be twisted off.

326) A tool to take out slack in a binder chain?

Enjoy,
DoN.
