My father just gave me a chest filled with tools, which belonged to a carpentar down in Brooklyn, back in the 1940's.
Along with the typical carpentry tools were several items which I believe are farrier tools.
I've enclosed pictures of some of them for your viewing pleasure.

Sorry, I tried.
I guess my "smart phone" is only as good as the user. :embarrassed:
I,ll try again when I'm on my computer.

Looks like an eraser to me.

Been a long, long time but they don't look like my dad's the farrier tools. None of them had any serrated gripping edges. The knife like tool in the first pic could be used to trimp, pick at a horses hooves but all the ones I saw were 'hooked'. I have 2 or 3 of the end nippers, don't recall now from where, probably out of my dad's shop. Used them in fencing and the like jobs.

Need the grippers for making/forming the shoes they get pretty hot. The Farrier Clincher also has serrated jaws.

Nail and staple pullers and some old pliers, not sure if they are specific to horseshoe work or not.

I have most of them as well, including that little vise/clamp with the wing nut.
Not sure what that was designed for???
