Like some have already guessed, it stamps numbers, but more specifically, it stamps the 12 months of 1956 and then Jan-Mar of 1957.

It molds the shoe size into the rubber heel of a boot. The sizes are in US/Canadian and Japanese I believe.

Unfortunately the name of this little beauty escapes me at the moment, but obviously, just from looking at it you can tell its creator was a visionary, the provocative bumps and flat finish are a combination rarely seen today. These are useful in many circumstances, e.g.: some guy shoots you a snook in church; an idiot is trying to argle-bargle your girlfriend; that guy with the chainsaw doesn't know when to stop; a couple of weasels are bothering your chickens; or even when some hockey puck needs his firkin realigned. I guess that's enough for now, those are just off the top of my head, I'm sure there are plenty more times when this would come in handy.

It couldn't been used for dates or months because the caracter are fixed, and are 15; then maybe it was used to stamp the size of some tool like 01/56 or 15/56

Looks like you use it to strip kernels off a corn cobb. Heh, course I can't tell its size. Maybe it's for a REALLY big corn cobb...

It's like a stamp, but not really. It's used for etching a number into metal. You put the desired number face-down on whatever you want to brand, then whack it on the back with a hammer.

I believe it is a ring to be hung on the rising part of a small stem valve for the control of water or gas by some controlling authority. It can be read backwards by the use of a mirror.

I knew this one right away. It's an ancient Hawaiian Lei from the Iron Age. It's in really good shape, but heck, those things lasted forever.

It looks like it's attached to a cog to increase it's size. The inner teething are about the same size, but it increases the width between teeth.

Well, that's my guess.

This is a mold insert for adding a datestamp to manufactured goods. You slot the insert into the mold in the proper orientation, and the date shown is molded into the product. This particular model appears to be from 1956, since the dates run are of the form "m-yy" and the yy is 56.

it has characteristics of a spark plug gap tool, but obviously it's not for spark plugs because it's measurements are far larger than needed. i'm at a loss. it's photoshopped!

It's a stamp tool used to put numbers and/or letters on antibiotics and other medications.

I believe it is to hung on a small valve on the rising stem part of the shaft to indicate when it was turned on or off by the controlling authority.The valve would be for gas or water.
