1 is a pipe flare tool.. no value
many others are wood working tools, little value.
Without makers name hard to put a value on them.
There are tool collectors out there...
But not knowing the maker, hard to say.

1 - looks like it might be a wire stripping tool... can't see it closeup enough to tell for certain
2 - a compass... a tool for drawing circles and arcs
3 - awls... for punching holes in various materials
7 - looks like a caliper... used to get an exact thickness, etc. measure of an object held between the jaws
9 - rasps... rough files used to smooth surfaces down, especially wood
11 - looks like it's an old drawer pull (handle)... not a tool
12 - don't know what the sawtoothed or smooth-edge blades would be used for specifically... looks like you could 'saw' with them, but pretty short
Can't see the other pieces well enough and know little about old tools anyway.. will be interested in what the knowledgeable folks are able to add. Fun and interesting old grouping.

For sure items for a wood lathe, that big metal part is the rest for the blades
and there are wood bits. Some of the others not sure, but mostly wood working.

Almost all of these tools are wood working tools.
They're for working with molding or baseboard.
Lets see how I can do here:
1 ~ Dowel Tool , but not sure because we have a similar tool in the aircraft industry but it has larger holes
2 ~ Compasss
3 ~ Awls
4 ~ I don't know but I can assure you it has value!
5 ~ Hand Chisels
6 ~ Not sure but it looks like an old wire stripper
7 ~ I can't see it good enough
8 ~ Looks like a carpet or baseboard tool
9 ~ The hole in them has me stumped
10 ~ ?
11 - A draw tool for shaving down wood, both concave & convex
12 - Moldong saws
I tried my best without looking at the web

Thank you all, please keep giving me soulutions 😉
Now i like also to ask, how could i do it? I have a lot of woodworking tools and also other stuff in the house but i really do not know how to sell them because not know of the item name and value. I have listed Belzer chisels i think they are really rare but i could not find the info in the web anywere. I came from small country and there are no honest dealers to give me propriet price for all of the items Defently in the house are still high value items and also more with lower value but i think there is more then 500.000 items in the house and i simply do not how to strat to sell all in the shortest time avaliabe... Please advise

Knowing the value of what you have to sell is important, and there is no way around just digging in and doing the research.
The worth of any item is the amount a buyer is willing to pay.

These are old fashion wood working tools, mostly cabinet tools.
#11 is a draw plane for corners AKA spoke shave
#12 are cabinet saws
#4 saw set, for adjusting or setting the offset required on hand saw blades
#8 is a cabinet scraper
#2 Compass
#3 Awls
#9 looks like a hand chisel

I don't know what any of those tools are called ,, but I'm pretty sure my dad had most of them . He was a carpenter / contracter in the old days . However here's an idea ,, make a vintage style tool wreath . You can drill small holes in the tools you can or attach wire to the ones you can't . Pick up the bases for the wreath at any craft shop , spray paint them , then attach a few of the tools to each one . I think they would make a unique decor item for any man cave . Plus look at the bright side ,, with this idea you don't need to know what any of them are called . 🙂

10 Might be a push drill.
Picture is a bit hard to tell for sure.

1. Looks like a crimper/forming/shaping tool for tubing or soft metals. Not a stripper or flaring tool.
2.Dividers for transferring/scribing measurments
3. Awls
4. Looks like a crimping/embossing type tool with an adjustable stop (put controlled depth dimple in edge of sheetmetal maybe)
5. Wood lathe cutting tools
6. ?
7. ?
8. Might be a lathe tool rest (seems familiar but not recalling)
9. Look like might be wood lathe tools for forming or cutting (hole fits on a pin on rest and allows leverage on workpiece to cut wood or to form soft thin metals?)
10. ?
11. Spoke shave - curved plane for round object planing (table legs, etc)
12. first one looks like a Japanese saw for detail work. Other 2 look like maybe wood lathe cutooff saws?
