My first thought was a fishing arrow head, but after looking at it, I
can't imagine how it would work . What kind of arrowhead do you think
it is? Sam

If I remember correctly they're used for small game and bird hunting. A
direct hit will kill or stun a small animal while the outspread tines will
hang the arrow up in the tall grass in case of a miss making the arrow
easier to retrieve.

It is called a Judo head. It is used for birds and small animals.

O.K. Posting from rec.crafts.metalworking again:

339) It looks as though it is a tool for removing/installing
(unscrewing/screwing in) 5C collets in a CNC lathe. (Except
that I'm not sure why the other three slots.)

340) Part of a latch for webbing belts. The two springs on the
sides hold the teeth lightly engaged, and the hooks below
grip more firmly when it is under load. (I think.)

341) Driver for flexible abrasive disks, perhaps? The springs
keep the flexible surface in contact with the workpiece?

342) A puzzle?

343) *This* one, I am sure about. It is a lock-out plate, used
for lockable power switches to allow multiple people working on
a piece of powered equipment to be sure that the power is off.
Each worker puts his own personal lock through one of the six
holes, and any one of the six is sufficient to keep the horns of
the ring engaged with the locking mechanism of the power switch
(called the "disconnect"). It is a safety tool.

344) An old fishing reel, of the design used before the "spinning"
reel came into use.

Enjoy,
DoN.

A little tougher this week, Rob.

339. No clue
340. Can opener thingamabob.
341. No clue
342. Metal anechoic chamber walls.
343. Lockout device for electrical panels. Allows the master switch to
be locked in OFF position. Allows multiple locks to be inserted to
allow multiple parties to be performing maintenance on the machinery fed
by the panel at the same time.
344. Open faced fishing reel.

It is for hanging things, but I'm looking for a more specific answer.

Partial credit, it is a hook, not used with a door but on a specific type of
wall.

I'm guessing that a Judo head is the same as mine but made by a different
company.

verified it.

small game or stump shooting, with the wires stopping it from burrowing
under grass.

A brick wall.
It is inserted into the mortar gap with the teeth biting
into the lower brick and the "batwings" pressing
against the upper brick to keep it in place.

It is used on a bricked wall. The teeth and two wide spread 'antlers' are used
as a compression fit in the horizontal mortar line. The two curvved hooks are
then used as the hanger for ... whatever.

By the way, what really _is_ # 341? I can read that it is a "Shocker
100 arrowhead" which:

"Five spring-steel claws grip turf and prevent the arrow from
burrowing into the ground. Tremendous shocking power for small game
hunting. Perfect for precision stump shooting. Sold in packages of
2."

But I still wonder what it /does/.

Like a Judo point. Its used for small game shooting. When shooting at
low angles an arrow tends to slither along the ground and may wind up
in a different place/direction than when you last saw it.

The fingers catch on grass tufts and so forth, slowing it down very
quickly and in fact, may cause the arrow to pop upwards at the nock
end so its easily seen and retrieved.

When shooting a rabbit or small game, the fingers grab fur, guts,
tendons and internal organs and simply rip them out.
Death is usually instantaneous.

OK, I am a bit wiser, but still.... Are we talking about bow and
arrow hunting here? Or some sort of airborn harpoon? Or real (* gasp
*) guns?

Oh..bow and arrows. Arrows are generally shot from bows. Bolts from
crossbows, and so forth.

Though you can shoot arrows from a 12ga or 20ga shotgun. Remove the
shot from the shell, stuff an arrow down the barrel and chamber the
shell. Make sure the arrow is against the wad before firing. Wood
actually holds up better than aluminum arrows most of the time.

They fly really really fast, but tend to go in all directions. Too
fast for stabilization usually.

Or so they say........

Ah, I could not image in the first place. I don't think such hunting
is allowed in Norway.
