It can also be used for dragging milk crates. I have a pair of those hooks from when I went riding (horses) every week. They fit into loops at the top of my riding boots, enabling me to pull them on easily. They're boot hooks. Mine are identical, grooves and all, to the one in the photo. Sheila Correct, it's a boot puller. |

. .. 243 appears to me to be some kind of cutter. I have at my parents house a wire stripper, which is some what similar to this. I'm thinking for this, maybe a strap cutter, for cutting straps off of packing skids. It could be a wire stripper, but I don't think it's a cutter because the part that looks like it cuts doesn't get close enough to the other piece. The wire in the last photo is an example of what happens when this tool is used, probably the same would happen with a strap. 247, I believe to be a baling hook. This handle makes it easier to handle hay bales which are wrapped in string. It can also be used for dragging milk crates. It's not a baling hook... I'll post the answers to this set tomorrow, along with another set either Wed. or Thurs. 236 may possibly be a link remover for working on bicycle or chain saw chain. 238 is very obvious to me. It is a P-38 military can opener. 240 may be a shoe stretcher. 241 appears to be a drill gage. http://pzphotosan46.blogspot.com/ I found a link to the answers.
