Yes, it has a line clipper, a needle to clear a hook eyelet, a hook
sharpener, and a knot tying tool.

In that case -- why the large "USA" markings on it? Was it Army
issue?

Made here? I know that might be a shocker, but we used to make stuff like
this in the USA.

Yes -- but it would typically say "Made in USA", not just "USA".
However, lots of things which I was issued by the army, including pocket
knives, were stamped "USA" in relatively large letters (or sometimes
just "US"). And I was just a civilian technician employed at an Army
R&D lab.

Enjoy,
DoN.

I've never heard of clearing a hook eyelet with a needle, and this
needle looks needlessly long. When fishing, I'd use a pocket knife to
cut line.

The tool would allow one to poke or snip without hazard to a rubber
raft. I wonder if it was a survival tool that surplus stores later sold
for fishing. A downed airman with a torn nail would want a clipper.
The needle could be to poke holes in something for lacing or sewing.

About two clicks down the page. You're looking for "nippers". The "simple"
Orvis version is the last one on the page. But for $12.95 ...

Hmm ... a tool for disarming (or perhaps arming) something like
mines?

Either antique ceremonial garb from some other culture, or
perhaps similar from some fraternal organization here in the USA?

Toothpaste tube squeezer -- put the narrow end through the top
slot, thread it through the key, and wind up the tube as you use the
toothpaste, squeezing the toothpaste ahead of the pinch point.

17. This large pan is 30" diameter and 7" deep, it was displayed on a

Some kind of deep frying pan? I don't cook, so who knows?

Enjoy,

I'm curious. Would tortillas need a 30" pan?
If it wasn't for tortillas, I wonder if it was for stir frying. I
wonder what it's made of.
