The Rex tool is a leather riveter. I may be interested in that.

The top tool may be a syringe of some type for taking oil or other liquid samples
 
The black tool as Barnyard said a leather riveter. Dad use to have one like it on the farm, don't know where it got off to, but he used it putting name tags on the coon hound collars. Should have a little screw-on cover located by the bottom to store a few rivets in but I don't believe this one has it.
The plier things could be a saw set, without the die to go in it.
The needle looking thing: What the dentist use to give me a shot with when I was about 10-11 year old!!!! Looks just like it!!!

May not be that far off. Without the step down extension it would look like a sheep dosing syringe. Vern
 
either the pictures or my eyes are a little blurry, but I believe the pliers are a small version of a metal break, for assembling furnace duct work. I saw the furnace guys using them when they put my Geo thermal system 3 or 4 years ago.

the "pliers" have slots on each side. almost looks like was a crimper of some sort. the oil thing, top screws off.

There should be a place for screws to go in from the handle side so the screw extends into the slot as a depth stop.

Bingo, I knew I had seen that before, we used to have one as well as everyone in the area that butchered hogs and cured their own meat.
 
Okay, now that we identified what they who wants them, and we need to set up the cub express. Oh, they are free to the first poster, with a plan. I plan to be at DocFest (ofcourse) and Barnyard Bash, after that i havent decided yet.
