Do any of the experts out there have any idea of what these tools may have been used for? There are no names on the silver and black ones. The one with the wood and brass handle has a leather scabbard and the tool is impressed with what looks like DONALDSON, Montreal. From left to right they measure: 14 3/4"; 16"; and 12 1/8". They are ALL heavy. The one that is signed is hollowed out on one side. Any help or suggestions where to get some would be greatly appreciated.

I would go with the two on the right being Pry Bars.
That other tool looks like some sort of a core sample tool.

The two on the right, I have a couple of them, but have no idea what they are.
I use them as pry bars.

Thank you so very much for answering my question. I REALLY appreciate it.
As for the brass and wood handled bar, I too thought the bar was some sort of tool used for coring.
Again many thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

I found the other tool.
It is a Cheese Core Sampler.
I guess with cheese you could not stick a regular core sampler into the cheese as it would stick and bind and not be a clean cut to pull out the sample. So you stick this is and then twist a complete circle to cut out the core then pull it out.
