The one with the spool looks like it could be something to mend sails and I agree with you about the net mending idea, however, the one with the moving parts and cog still baffles.Fibre Optics Grouphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11288511077236227904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2307328535462685153.post-8379591546035335412013-06-28T21:33:07.581-05:002013-06-28T21:33:07.581-05:00Hello again Pat, my husband says the one that look...Hello again Pat, my husband says the one that looks like a pole is probably an awl, used for netting or sewing or repairing canvas, the other appears to be a marlin spike, used for roping,tying and undoing knots. Both are marine tools. the one with the gears he has no clue.
