What the Heck Is It ?

Road grader story, My township and Devils Lake state park ended up in court about who owned the roadway.
Town brought in paid bills from a farmer for grading the road with a team of horses sometime before 1900 (they don't throw anything away).
Town said we DO NOT pay maintenance for anything we don't own.
They won.

The first one appears to be a pin press for pressing out things like roll pins.

The next-to-last might be a hand reamer if the flutes on the bottom are hardened.
 
Obviously this is a ....?
